Trump’s rebranding of Lake Ontario was just the beginning of multi-day effort to provoke Canada
Donald Trump sought to escalate his trade war with Canada on Sunday afternoon and issued a demand on Truth Social that Canadian companies wanting to do business with the U.S. reshore their headquarters within its borders.
His latest remarks come as Canadian officials warned that the country was prepared for an extended dispute with the U.S. after trade talks collapsed and Trump announced tariffs as high as 50 percent on some Canadian goods including dairy products and lumber. Canada has levied reciprocal tariffs against U.S. steel, aluminum and other exports.
On Sunday afternoon, the president said Canadian companies should move their headquarters and production facilities to avoid newly imposed tariffs. The duties are set to begin in 2027.


He was medically a moron before he had a small stroke. Now he shits himself constantly, can’t remember which country ending in N he started a war with, and can’t name the president of the United States as far back as 2025. If it wasn’t for Steven Miller animating his corpse, he’d be in a burn pit under 6’ of effluent already.
You mean “The Islamic Republic of Japan”? You give him too much credit that he simply can’t remember the specific country. He doesn’t even know the country names in the first place.
