SEATTLE - Experts and politicians all across North America continue to raise their concerns over President-elect Donald Trump's plans of imposing tariffs on all Canadian and Mexican imported goods if they fail to curb the flow of undocumented immigrants and illicit drugs from entering U.S. soil.
Recent comments this week by Trump about how Mexico and Canada are "bringing crime and drugs" into the United States has increased tensions between all three North American partners. To Trump's threats of imposing a 25% tariff, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum replied with a strong posture, saying Mexico "negotiates as equals, there is no subordination here," Sheinbaum said on a Tuesday press conference.
