Canada does not treat us right: Trump complains about new tax
Ottawa, Feb 13 (IBNS): Complaining about the new international tax imposed by Canada, US President Donald Trump has said the neighbouring country does not treat them right, media reports said.
Trump made the comment at the White House on Monday.
He has unveiled a new infrastructure plan.
Speaking at the trade practices, Trump said: "Canada does not treat us right in terms of the farming and the crossing the borders."
"We cannot continue to be taken advantage of by other countries" he added.
Earlier, Trump had complained about the Canadian dairy controls and softwood lumber.
Trump said: "We are going to charge countries outside of our country — countries that take advantage of the United States."
"Some of them are so-called allies but they are not allies on trade… So we're going to be doing very much a reciprocal tax and you'll be hearing about that during the week and the coming months" he added.
