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

Correio da Manhã13 September 2026 at 07:23

President Donald Trump said he maintains a "good relationship" with Mexico, contrasting with his position towards Canada, which he accused of "cheating" the United States.

The statement came during an interaction with journalists, when Trump was asked if he was considering withdrawing from a trade agreement with Mexico.

Trump did not specify details about Canada's alleged deceptive practices nor about which treaty was at stake in the journalists' question.

The contrast between the positive tone towards Mexico and the criticism of Canada reflects the tensions that have marked the trade relations between the United States and its North American neighbors.

Why this matters

Readers in the region are affected because any decision by Washington regarding the USMCA can significantly alter trading conditions with Mexico and Canada, impacting exporting and importing companies, supply chains, and jobs related to cross-border trade. This position by Trump follows his usual rhetoric on trade agreements and may signal future pressure to renegotiate terms or impose tariffs.

Fernando Alexandre may be the minister Education had been waiting for decades | By Henrique Dias Freire

This opinion article analyzes the performance of Education Minister Fernando Alexandre, praising the recovery of teachers' service time (with almost 90,000 teachers benefiting), support for relocation, and simplification of recruitment procedures, but harshly criticizing the failure to digitize this summer's exams, which forced the re-evaluation of papers and delayed the school calendar. The author concludes that the minister is "on the way" to a long-awaited change, but historical recognition will depend on the ability to transform reforms into lasting results for students.
