“Not really sure why he is picking on us": Canadian Federation of Ag on Trump’s tariffs

“A lot of frustration by farmers and consumers in general and the Canadian public in general.”

Keith Currie with the Canadian Federation of Agriculture spoke with RFD-TV’s own Suzanne Alexander on the impact on the ag sector, retaliatory tariffs, and what will come from Trump and Trudeu’s conversations.
