Trump additionally mentioned discussions with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau are ongoing.

Canada introduced Monday that it plans to impose 25 p.c tariffs on $30 billion in U.S. items beginning Tuesday.

Editor’s notice: Trudeau introduced Monday night that “I just had a good call with President Trump” and that proposed tariffs “will be paused for at least 30 days while we work together.”
