That goes against the spirit of the agreement. Canada has tariffs on certain US products so it is only fair for the US to also have some tariffs on certain Canadian products.
You don't sign an agreement saying we are all going to be nice, fair and cooperate and then talk shît at the first media briefing afterwards.
Trudeau basically just destroyed US-canada relations by trying to score some political points with some leftie newspapers.

Indeed. Trump has no option but to retaliate to this weekend’s back-stabbing by imposing tariffs of his own... On May 31st. Eleven days ago. Wait, what?

Classic bully move. You hit first and get hit back, then you claim fake news that you hit at all and now have to retaliate against the "first strike".

Just like what happened during the Bowling Green Massacre.
 
Web of elite Russians met with NRA execs during 2016 campaign

Several prominent Russians, some in President Vladimir Putin’s inner circle or high in the Russian Orthodox Church, now have been identified as having contact with National Rifle Association officials during the 2016 U.S. election campaign, according to photographs and an NRA source.

The contacts have emerged amid a deepening Justice Department investigation into whether Russian banker and lifetime NRA member Alexander Torshin illegally channeled money through the gun rights group to add financial firepower to Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential bid.

Other influential Russians who met with NRA representatives during the campaign include Dmitry Rogozin, who until last month served as a deputy prime minister overseeing Russia’s defense industry, and Sergei Rudov, head of one of Russia’s largest philanthropies, the St. Basil the Great Charitable Foundation. The foundation was launched by an ultra-nationalist ally of Russian President Putin.

The Russians talked and dined with NRA representatives, mainly in Moscow, as U.S. presidential candidates vied for the White House. Now U.S. investigators want to know if relationships between the Russian leaders and the nation’s largest gun rights group went beyond vodka toasts and gun factory tours, evolving into another facet of the Kremlin’s broad election-interference operation.

The NK-USA meeting seems to have gone well.

I think NK are on the road to getting what they want. Legitimacy and a seat on the Nuclear table.

But the bigger picture is at least there will be no war. So that is good!

Don't forget that Trump is a different person depending on who he last spoke to.

You seem a bit upset that Trump is doing something as historic as negotiating peace in NK. If this goes well and Kim actually agree to open NK to the world Trump should get a Nobel piece price, to give that thing some meaning again.

Well considering the Nobel piece price has never existed, its never had meaning in the first place. For once we agree though, Trump should get the Nobel piece price.

Rietrot's troll is showing through; nobody can be that ignorant and still posting here.

Lol I actually can't believe I spelled it that wrong. Shît happens. I trust you are smart enough to understand what I meant. Hopefully I'm not over estimating your intelligence, maybe I am.

Agreed. He should get the Piece Prize. The amount of bombs his administration drops daily is turning the world into a more piece-like state.
