Trump's Tariff Gamble Backfires as Canada Flips the Script in Trade Dispute

Donald Trump pledged five major trade deals during his term — but so far, none have been finalized. With no signed agreements or official frameworks, questions remain about the effectiveness of his tariff-driven strategy. Meanwhile, Canada is moving forward. Former Bank of Canada Governor Mark Carney has set a July 21 deadline, signaling potential economic countermeasures if no progress is made.

Canada’s proposed response could impact key U.S. sectors — including agriculture, technology, and energy — escalating tensions in an already strained trade relationship. This video examines the current state of Trump’s trade agenda, Carney’s calculated approach, and the real-world effects already being felt by American consumers.

As political rhetoric ramps up, the debate continues: Is Trump protecting U.S. interests, or are his trade tactics backfiring? And is Canada’s strategy a smarter form of economic diplomacy? We explore both sides to understand the stakes and potential outcomes in this growing trade standoff.
