Trump wants to increase tariffs, Cohn resigns. Canuckland, also Mexico warn of retaliation.
Buckle up, folks!
Early on Monday, the U.S. president ratcheted up tension before the ministerial meetings in Mexico by tweeting that"Tariffs on Steel and Aluminum will only come off if new & fair NAFTA agreement is signed." said that meant Canada and Mexico would enjoy tariff exemptions once a NAFTA deal was reached, calling the tariffs an "incentive" to conclude the talks.
Canada and Mexico say they should be exempted from suchmoves, and have warned they could retaliate.
Guajardo said there would be no concessions made in the NAFTA negotiations to placate Trump on steel and aluminum, while Freeland said the two issues were separate.
