> US President Donald Trump has hit back at Canada’s retaliatory tariffs on US products, calling it “foolish” to think Canada could win a trade war with him. He also said Canada wanted the benefits of being a state without being one. Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said the two countries were engaged in a trade war and vowed to match US tariffs.
