U.S. President Donald Trump said on Wednesday it is “time to teach Canada you can’t do this anymore,” just days after trade talks between the neighbouring countries broke down.

“I had a deal, that was a pretty good deal, you know, quite good,” Trump told Glenn Beck in an interview.

“They don’t have anything that we have to have, OK, we can get by. I mean, there are a couple of things that would make it a little inconvenient, but we can get them elsewhere. And it’s time to teach Canada you can’t do this anymore,” Trump said.

Trump imposed new 50 per cent tariffs on US$20 billion of Canadian imports on Saturday after talks between the two countries collapsed.

Canada hit back on Tuesday with retaliatory tariffs on about US$20 billion worth of U.S. annual imports and rolled out aid for businesses and workers, matching Washington’s latest duties dollar-for-dollar.
