The Spin

These tariffs are necessary to protect American workers and address Canada's unfair trade practices. Canada has failed to stop the fentanyl crisis that's killing Americans and instead retaliated with tariffs rather than working cooperatively. Trump's action is justified as the trade deficit with Canada poses a threat to the American economy and national security.

The tariff threats are based on false premises since data clearly shows minimal fentanyl comes from Canada compared to Mexico. Canada has already invested $1.3 billion in border security and appointed a fentanyl czar, demonstrating a genuine commitment to addressing U.S. concerns through cooperation rather than confrontation. Trump's threat is baseless.
