The trade fight between the US and Canada is getting worse. Donald Trump said he may raise tariffs on cars. He wants to put more taxes on auto imports. Canada’s top trade official, Mark Carney, said this is unfair. He accused Trump of trying to hurt Canada’s car industry. Carney also said Canada will respond if the US acts. Carney said talks can start again only if the US shows the “right attitude.” The two sides are still not agreeing.
