00:00:00.000canada treats us very badly i would say that of all countries as you know we have president
00:00:04.320chi coming in a couple of weeks uh we have a lot of we deal with a lot of people and people
00:00:09.040oftentimes they'll ask me who's the worst to deal with on trade and i said that's easy canada um
00:00:17.200and when the americans stop doing memes stop throwing shade stop trying to be tough uh and
00:00:25.040start being serious about having those discussions uh we can have those discussions but it's like
00:00:29.760it's not constructive but that's that's their democracy
00:00:35.040well the us is becoming weaker we will become stronger and we will
00:00:39.360diversify and turn ourselves towards europe canada is the only country on
00:00:44.880earth along with china that has imposed so many counter-terrorists
00:00:48.160these people are insane they're insane they're crazy i think they're purposely
00:00:53.280trying to sabotage the long-standing relationship that
00:00:57.360canada and the united states have had for well over 100 years nothing else explains it they're
00:01:03.400not that dumb i'm sure some of them are really stupid but not all of them are that dumb and
00:01:08.540mark harney is is part of that too he's getting cozier and cozier with china getting closer to
00:01:14.740europe talking about canada joining the european union a union that is collapsing falling apart
00:01:20.740in every sense of the word the euro is falling apart just like the canadian dollar is as people
00:01:26.660are talking about oh we're going to stand up to trump and show the americans sure you're going to
00:01:30.660show a 30 trillion dollar economy with a two trillion dollar economy smaller than texas one
00:01:38.100state you know we've had a free rider problem with canada for a long time and prime minister
00:01:44.740carney after getting getting a little bit of a verbal beat down for myself secretary hanks has
00:01:50.100said, well, you know, you've got to stop throwing shade there and to get the negotiations back on
00:01:56.540track. Well, he was the one who said we were at war. But I will tell you, like Canada had a great
00:02:02.820military. They were right there at the forefront on the beaches of D-Day. And what the Canadian
00:02:08.920government has done to the Canadian Armed Forces, if you look at the ranks of NATO spending,
00:02:15.800they are near the very bottom like they're seller dwellers around with spain in terms of
00:02:22.120their military spending to gdp and why is that because they were free riding and you know sean
00:02:29.180i will tell you who was not with the prime minister the canadian businesses are not with
00:02:33.080the prime minister the canadian military is not with the prime minister and you know he he thinks
00:02:38.400that he got to office on an anti-trump anti-americans the platform and it's not going to
00:02:44.700How confident are you that you'll be able to renew the USNCA, and what more do you expect from Canada at this point?
00:02:51.700Well, I'm not looking to renew it. I don't, you know, I mean, I made the deal, and the primary reason I made the deal is that NAFTA was the worst trade deal I've ever seen.
00:02:58.700And I made it better, but I had the right to terminate. And, you know, with NAFTA, we didn't have the right to terminate.
00:03:04.700I had to get these senators to approve that deal. That was a tough thing. Congressman, too.
00:03:10.660NAFTA had no termination. So, I mean, I've never said this before, but I'll tell you what my
00:03:15.380thinking was. NAFTA was a disaster for our country. The worst trade deal ever made, by far. NAFTA was
00:03:22.500the worst trade deal we ever had. USMCA did one thing that I loved. After six years, it comes up
00:03:30.100for renewal. I don't know that I'm going to renew it because, to be honest with you, the United
00:03:36.420states does much better okay we don't need anything that canada has we don't need anything
00:03:41.700that mexico has but they need everything that we have meanwhile trump's been saying the exact same
00:03:46.340thing about canada from the moment he got elected if your economy is so dependent on the united
00:03:51.380states for survival then maybe you should just become part of america he's been telling canadian
00:03:56.580politicians the same message for months if you truly want free trade then open your market
00:04:03.540the president understands that we need to open the markets canada is not open to us
00:04:09.220they need to open their market unless they're willing to open their market they're going to pay
00:04:13.620a tariff let's have real free trade where there's no tariffs on your side or our side but there's
00:04:19.940an issue canada is very protectionist while the government complains that trump policies
00:04:25.540are protectionists they do the exact same thing here tariffing american exports into canada
00:04:31.540as high as three to four hundred percent especially when it comes to dairy all to
00:04:36.580protect the quebec dairy cartel but carney's rule here mark carney um who leads canada
00:04:43.460into the toilet as it were carney's rule seems to be that for every additional
00:04:50.020political point he can rise in the polls trashing donald trump his economy goes down
00:04:56.500by several more points and that's the that's the ugly problem we're in and
00:05:02.620then he's got his like like German Shepherd kind of egging him on in Doug
00:05:08.020Ford and both of these gentlemen don't understand they've got a glass jaw I we
00:05:14.140our economy is so much bigger than Canada's that they need us more than we
00:05:19.900need them so if I'm hearing you're saying you're gonna run attack ads
00:05:22.460basically against what he's doing in the States well I wouldn't call them attack
00:05:25.180ads i'm going to call them information ads okay and they're going to inform uh the great people
00:05:29.980of the united states you know how it could be and having two great nations and how it might be if
00:05:37.100these tariffs continue to go through uh as far as i'm concerned it's it's unacceptable you'll see
00:05:42.700some of the presidents that were the most successful were believers in tariffs and i even see foreign
00:05:48.140countries now that we are doing very well with taking ads don't go with tariffs they're taking
00:05:53.820ads i saw an ad last night from canada if i was canada i'd take that same ad also but uh they're
00:06:00.220actually on television taking ads again to me it seems like these people either don't know what the
00:06:05.460hell they're doing or their goal is for this trade war to continue indefinitely what kind of
00:06:10.780negotiating tactic involves buying attack ads against the person you're trying to negotiate
00:06:15.920with especially if that person you're dealing with is donald trump in what world is that a good idea
00:06:21.420How big of a deal is this? Like, wherever this ends up going, and right now it looks like it's going nowhere, but does it make a big difference for the U.S.? Does it make a big difference for Canada? How do you read that?
00:06:33.520Well, so far, the tariffs on Canada have not been that big a deal because about 95 percent of their exports are covered under USMCA, which replaced NAFTA.
00:06:43.900And so that's that's really what's happening here is that Trump wants to renegotiate USMCA.
00:06:50.480That would be a very big deal. It would be particularly a big deal for Canada because roughly one in four Canadian jobs are involved with exporting to the US.
00:07:00.140So in other words, Canada needs a deal.
00:07:02.840We're about three quarters of all their exports.
00:07:05.320And Trump's position has been that Canada has been free riding on us.
00:07:08.880So the U.S. market, we are the largest consumer market in the world.
00:07:12.920Roughly one in three consumer dollars spent by humanity is the United States.
