Trump says he has a "good relationship" with Mexico but Canada "cheats" the United States

SAPO Notícias13 September 2026 at 02:31

Donald Trump stated this Saturday that the White House maintains a "good relationship" with Mexico, in contrast to his position regarding Canada. During his statements, the former North American president criticized Canada, accusing it of "cheating" the United States.

Trump's statements arise in the context of discussions about the future of the T-MEC trade agreement, the treaty that replaced the former NAFTA and regulates commercial exchanges between the three North American countries.

Trump did not specify to what extent he considers that Canada has been cheating the United States, but his statements suggest renewed tension in trade relations between the two neighboring countries.

This is not the first time Trump has expressed criticism of the trade agreement with Canada, having previously threatened to impose high tariffs on Canadian products should he return to power.

Why this matters

These statements by Trump suggest a differentiated diplomatic approach for the two North American neighbors, which may have direct implications for the T-MEC trade agreement that regulates commercial exchanges between the three countries. Mexican and Canadian companies and consumers may be affected differently depending on how these tensions translate into concrete trade policies.
