"The US president wrote on social media that if the Canadian prime minister, Mark Carney, thinks he is going to make Canada a Drop Off Port' for China to send goods and products into the United States, he is sorely mistaken. China will eat Canada alive, completely devour it, including the destruction of their businesses, social fabric, and general way of life, Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform."
"Let's put it this way they don't have any oil, Trump told the Post. We take the oil. The oil is being refined in various places including Houston, he said. The US military has seized seven Venezuela-linked tankers since the start of Trump's month-long campaign to control Venezuela's oil flows. Trump said on Tuesday that his administration had taken 50m barrels of oil out of Venezuela and was selling some of it in the open market."
President Donald Trump warned that Canada would face a 100% tariff on all goods entering the United States if Canada makes a trade deal with China. He wrote on Truth Social that Canada cannot serve as a 'Drop Off Port' for China, and claimed China would 'eat Canada alive, completely devour it,' destroying businesses, social fabric, and way of life. Trump has used tariff threats previously to influence other countries, sometimes backing down from extreme measures. Separately, Trump said US refineries are processing oil seized from Venezuela-linked tankers and that the US has taken 50 million barrels, selling some on the open market.
