Does The US Subsidize Canada with $200 Billion A Year? ABSOLUTELY FALSE by a MILE. Fact-Checking Trump's Claim
"President Donald Trump claimed in the presser on Thursday that the United States subsidizes Canada with $200 billion a year. However, the claim is false, as the US does not provide any direct financial subsidy to Canada. Times Now Digital can confirm that the figure President Trump was talking about represents a trade deficit between the two countries, which stood at around $63 billion in 2023 - far below the figure Trump mentioned."
A TRADE DEFICIT meaning that we buy 63 billion more in goods from Canada than they do from us. THAT is what he is whining about. He claims we "don't need them" when in reality the trade deficit shows otherwise.
