Trump agreed to delay tariffs on Canada and Mexico after their leaders agreed to measures to stop the flow of the opioid fentanyl into the United States.

    Oh interesting, didn’t know about that. So Trump can pretend he made a deal that was already done just by getting Canada to throw in ‘Fentanyl Czar’. What a deal maker /s

    Hope Canada continues to avoid American products and diversifies who they supply their exports to

      Yup, my understanding is that Mexico’s “deal” was the same. They’d already made those commitments very early on in the “negotiations”.

      This whole ease off of tarrifs has just been Trump backing down and announcing the things he already had. You can never lose when every loss is a win.
