Frida Ghitis: Donald Trump has declared an economic war on Canada that is savage enough to cripple its economy.
She says the U.S. has been Canada ’s closest partner and friend in more than two months .
Ghitis says Trump has threatened to use “economic force” to “get rid of that artificially drawn line” between Canada and the United States . She says he wants to use tariffs to compel Canada to tighten border security to stop the flow of fentanyl into the U., but that wasn’t enough for Trump .
The number of Canadians who view the U.S. favorably is plummeting.
A recent poll found that 27 percent of Canadians now see the United States as an enemy.
Marc Carney , the new leader of Canada ’s governing Liberal Party , called the US . “a country we can no longer trust”.
