President Trump on Wednesday said he turned down a solo meeting with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau where the pair would have discussed Canada's dairy tariffs.
Canada, he said, has treated the United States "very badly" during trade talks. Trudeau, Trump continued, "doesn't seem to want to move" on tariffs, and "I've told him to forget about it, and frankly we're thinking about just taxing cars coming in from Canada. That's the mother lode, that's the big one."
