'Well-known evil empire': Barack Obama mocks President Trump's trade war with Canada
DETROIT — Former president Barack Obama took aim at U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariffs on Canadian goods Saturday during an impassioned speech at a Democrat campaign rally in Detroit, Michigan, ahead of next month’s U.S. midterm elections. Former U.S. President Barack Obama criticised President Donald Trump's trade war with Canada during a speech at a Democrat campaign rally in Detroit, Michigan. He referred to Canada as a "well-known evil empire" and claimed that the tariffs were particularly evident in Michigan, where auto industry supply chains are deeply integrated with Canada. The trade war has been a key issue in the upcoming U.K. midterm elections, particularly in tight races. In August, Trump imposed sweeping 50% tariffs on billions of dollars in Canadian goods, including motor vehicles, after trade talks between the two countries fell apart. With the midterms less than two weeks away, he announced he would lift some of the tariffs, while adding tariffs to dozens of new products, including Canadian garbage and sewage.
