Trump seems ready to settle this trade war


Listen Later

Shock and awe followed by erratic moves is how Donald Trump is used to negotiating, as historian, businessman and Postmedia columnist Conrad Black (who occasionally speaks with the president) tells Brian this week. Trump is determined to end the era of other countries picking America’s pocket in myriad ways and is using tariffs to do it. Black says he gets the impression the Trump administration wants out of this Canadian trade war. But that doesn’t mean we’ll get back the free-trade world we had. So, he advises, Canada had better adapt to the dramatically changed economic and geopolitical reality and get a prime minister who can build our economy despite Trump (and Mark Carney isn’t it). (Recorded March 6, 2025)
