President Trump is proceeding with plans to impose tariffs on imports from Canada, Mexico, and China, despite criticism. The tariffs include a 25% import tax on Mexican and Canadian products, as well as a 10% tariff on Chinese products. Trump justifies these measures as a response to lax border policies and the threat of illegal immigrants and drugs. However, he has implemented a lower 10% tariff on Canadian power imports to minimize the impact on oil and fuel derivatives. Trump is confident that other countries will pay the tariffs, even with potential retaliatory actions. He accuses critics of being influenced by foreign powers. Colombia also faced tariffs after refusing a repatriation flight, leading to a resolution in favor of Trump's demands.
