The problem is small, but with Trump its not thought out, not logical, and this delay is to allow him to get his act together regarding tariffs. In 30 days time we shall what Trump does. Now he wants more US banking in Canada. His illogical demands will continue. Time would tell.
Tariffs on Canada delayed for 30 days after talk between Trudeau and Trump. Trump folds.
- Thread starter DesRicardo
- Start date
We all know what is done to Mad Dogs or Cows with Mad Cow disease.
This is what Trudeau said Trump agreed to:
$1.3 billion plan including efforts to disrupt the fentanyl trade, new tools for law enforcement, enhanced coordination with US law enforcement, increased information sharing and limiting traffic at the border.
There was also the deployment of drones and Black Hawk helicopters for surveillance.
Compare it to this release from Jan 15th. as part of the Border defence plan annouced Dec. 2024.
One new element appears to be the appointment of a "fentanyl tsar" and a $200m intelligence directive.

The Blackhawks were delivered a while ago and have been patrolling the 49th since Jan 17th.

CANADA IS NOT FOR SALE.
MONDAY, FEB 03, 2025 - 04:53 PM
Update (4:40pm ET): In what is a carbon copy of Trump's tariff-delaying deal with Mexico, moments ago Canada's outgoing PM, Justin Trudeau, said that he too had bent the knee, i.e. had a "good call" with Trump, and that US tariffs on Canada would be paused for 30 days after Canada - just like Mexico - agreed to send 10,000 troops to the border as part of a $1.3 billion border plan which "reinforces the border with new choppers, technology and personnel, enhanced coordination with our American partners, and increased resources to stop the flow of fentanyl".
Trudeau also said that Canada will appoint a Fentanyl Czar, list cartels as terrorists, ensure 24/7 eyes on the border, and launch a Canada- U.S. Joint Strike Force to combat organized crime, fentanyl and money laundering.
Finally, the Canadian PM also signed a new intelligence directive on organized crime and fentanyl and we will be backing it with $200 million.
As a result of not only bending the knee but bending over fully for the US president, Trump's proposed tariffs will be paused for at least 30 days.
Shortly after Trudeau's post, Trump followed suit on his own Truth Social network, writing that Canada "has agreed to ensure we have a secure Northern Border, and to finally end the deadly scourge of drugs like Fentanyl that have been pouring into our Country, killing hundreds of thousands of Americans, while destroying their families and communities all across our Country."
Trump concluded by saying that he is "very pleased with this initial outcome" adding that the Tariffs announced on Saturday will be paused for a 30 day period "to see whether or not a final Economic deal with Canada can be structured. FAIRNESS FOR ALL!"

Separately, the FT reported that all shipments arriving by mail from Canada and China will need to be cleared by customs from Tuesday onwards as the US moved to close a trade loophole that allowed low value imports to avoid duties.
“Without regard to their value, no mail shipments from China will be cleared or released” by the Customs and Border Protection agency “unless and until formal entry is properly filed”, the agency said in a document scheduled to be published in the Federal Register on February 5.
The CBP used the same language in a filing about tariffs on Canada, also scheduled to be published on Wednesday.
Details on the CBP’s order requiring “formal entry” for shipments from Canada and China follows US President Donald Trump issuing executive actions imposing tariffs on goods from those countries.
Trump’s executive orders stated that the articles applicable for tariffs would not be exempt from the so-called “de minimis exemption”, which allows low value imports to avoid duties.

Tl;dr: VP JD Vance summed it all up in one simple tweet:
Late last night we said that it is very likely Trump's trade war would be very short, after we pointed to better than evern Polymarket odds that the trade war with both Mexico and Canada would be over in the next month or two.
And then, just hours later, this appears to have been validated after Mexico's president Scheinbaum said that after having a good conversation with Trump, Mexico is "pausing tariffs for a month for now" and that Mexico will promptly comply with Trump's ask by reinforning the northern border with 10,000 national guard members to "prevent drug trafficking from Mexico to the US, particularly fentanyl."
Here is a translation of what she said:
President Trump has confirmed the tariffs are paused for one month:
The Canadians were very busy scouring the Government's tariffs site...
And now that trade war with Mexico appears to be over, Trump just has to repeat the same with Canada when he speaks to Trudeau at 3pm ET today.
As for China, we doubt that particular trade war will be as easy to win but who knows: Trump is certainly on a roll.
In any case, the market is certainly delighted with the outcome, and the Mexican peso is surging...
TSY yields are rising (shouldn't they fall on non-inflationary, non-tariffs?)...
Oil prices have plunged, erasing overnight tariff-driven gains...
Bitcoin is ripping higher (as we suppose this means no large drop in global liquidity?)
And US equities are reversing the large losses overnight quite rapidly...
Now, what will the Main stream Media say after doom-mongering all morning about Trump's 'catastrophic' tariffs?
PS.
FAFO win again. This is how a world leader operates. Not a shot fired, not one city bombed, no broken necks, no broken hearts.
No 10% grift and no nepotism
No apologies.
LetsGoBrandon.
And no military careerist and industry mogul paid off.

I agree it will be more business like and no hyperbole.
But make no mistake. There is going to be a dip in American orders for a bit. And a loss in travel. There is a lot of anger up here.
And I doubt he will get much more. We are prepared to go into a trade war if we have too. He blinked.
Trudeau could even declare it part of the military budget and then bullshit trump about increasing NATO spending. Not that trump actually cares about NATO but...
Agreed to but JT was dragging his feet so Trump turned up the heat. Now JT will be taking action.
I think that this could all be about insider trading except I don't think trump is that smart.
But I bet Musk made a killing this last week.
But I bet Musk made a killing this last week.
How were "feet being dragged"?
Plans were released Dec 2024 and over 60% had been implemented by the second week of 2025.
The rest will take time due to delivery time and training on new equipment and procedures but they are underway now.
Also hiring more CBSA officers and training them as well is not a 2 week or evan 30 day process.
As I said. His one seat lead in Congress and three in the Senate did this in. Too many donors would have been hurt. That imo was what resulted in Trump accepting THE SAME DEAL PROPOSED IN DECEMBER LAST YEAR.Trudeau Bends The Knee: Canada Will Send 10,000 Troops To Border, Name Fentanyl Czar To Delay Trump Tariffs

And vendors will still see a net loss imo. People are pissed up here, and planning to switch products, and travel elsewhere anyway.
It'd be ridiculous if he doesn't ask for more. threatening tariffs on trillions worth of trade and damage relations with your closest ally just to get what? A 1.3 billion dollar border plan to address less than 2% of illegal migrants and less than 1% of fentanyl? This deal is peanuts, it could have been talked about over a single phone call. If it's so easy for one person to overturn trade agreements for so little, how can you trust the US going forward?
We're not talking about customs agents we're talking about border guard or military troops

Even Mitch McConnell snapped out of it mid-glitch to call Trump stupid. lmao.
