Trump blasts Canada on Truth Social after trade negotiations collapse
Canadian prime minister says U.S. sought to restrict Canada’s ability to strike trade deals with other countries.
President Donald Trump lashed out at Canada early Sunday in his first public comments since trade negotiations between the two countries collapsed, accusing Ottawa of wanting the “benefits of being a State, without being one.”
“Canada wants the benefits of being a State, without being one!!!” Trump wrote on Truth Social.
“They have also charged our great farmers, for many years, massive amounts of Tariffs,” he added. “No more!!!”
The comments come a day after Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney suspended negotiations with the U.S. and ordered Canada’s trade team back to Ottawa as Trump’s 50% tariffs on roughly $20 billion worth of Canadian imports took effect early Saturday.

For its part, Canada has vowed to retaliate.
Carney said Friday that Ottawa plans to match the U.S. tariffs “dollar for dollar,” with the levies targeting multiple sectors, including steel, dairy, appliances, agricultural equipment, pulp and paper and electronics.
The duties are set to take effect the Tuesday after Labor Day, Sept. 8.
The prime minister on Saturday accused Washington of making a last-minute “power play,” saying the U.S. sought to restrict Canada’s ability to negotiate trade agreements with other countries.

“It’s a power play,” Carney said. “It becomes a question of sovereignty.”
According to Carney, trade talks broke down after the U.S. introduced new demands involving Canada’s other trading relationships, its auto sector and protections for Canadian culture and the French language.
“In short, they asked too much, and they offered too little,” Carney said.
The Trump administration has disputed Carney’s version of events, arguing that Canada walked away from terms the two countries had already agreed to.

“Our interest is in protecting American workers and protecting American supply chains. We’ve been offering to bring the Canadians along on that path, really to cut the tariffs on them on steel, on autos, even lumber, things that are sensitive for them,” U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said Saturday on “Fox & Friends Weekend.”
“And they’ve always had the best deal, and they still would have an even better deal, but they didn’t want that,” he continued.
Greer said no additional trade negotiations with Canada have been scheduled.

Thai Authorities Increase Security Measures Across Southern Border Provinces
Officials in YALA province are tightening up security measures after a series of incidents disrupted several locations across the three southern border provinces overnight.
Authorities have intensified security measures across the southern border provinces in response to rising concerns over illegal activities and cross-border threats. Enhanced patrols, including increased personnel and advanced technology, are now deployed to monitor and secure these critical areas. Local law enforcement agencies are collaborating with national security forces to ensure a cohesive approach to maintaining regional stability and safety.
In addition to stricter surveillance, authorities are implementing more rigorous inspections at checkpoints and border crossings. These measures aim to prevent illegal immigration, smuggling, and potential infiltration by criminal networks. The enhanced scrutiny serves as both a deterrent to unlawful activities and a reassurance to residents affected by such challenges, fostering a sense of security and confidence within border communities.
Community engagement is also a cornerstone of the tightened security strategy. Authorities are working with local leaders and residents to strengthen communication channels and encourage the reporting of suspicious activities. By fostering cooperation and trust between communities and law enforcement, authorities hope to create a united front against threats and maintain the integrity of the southern border provinces. This comprehensive approach highlights the importance of collaboration and vigilance in safeguarding national security.
