Ambassador Kirsten Hillman stated that Canada is open to purchasing more U.S. goods, including a new submarine fleet, to address President-elect Trump's trade deficit concerns.
Hillman warned that if Trump imposes tariffs, prices will surge for Americans, emphasizing that Canada's trade with the U.S. supports millions of jobs.
Hillman emphasized the absurdity of Trump viewing the U.S. trade deficit with Canada as a subsidy, noting that Canada is the top buyer of U.S. goods.
Reflecting on Trump's negotiating style, Hillman suggested that Trump's comments about Canada becoming the 51st state were part of his strategy to position himself for discussions.
