Canadian Member of Parliament Charlie Angus said President Trump “choked” as his tariff plan for Canada was ultimately delayed before going into action.

“He blinked,” Angus told MeidasTouch, highlighted by HuffPost. “He choked.”

Just days after Trump signed an executive order that imposed a 25 percent tariff on Canada, he reached an agreement with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to hold the tariffs for a month.

Angus noted the Canadian people are much more united than American citizens currently, and the country is ready to go “pound for pound” with the U.S. if Trump plunges the countries into a trade war.
