U.S. President Donald Trump says his country may not be able to reach an economic agreement with Canada, which may end up having to pay higher tariff rates.

“We haven’t really had a lot of luck with Canada. I think Canada could be one where they'll just pay tariffs; not really a negotiation,” Trump said while speaking to reporters at the White House on July 25.
