Trump Won’t Meet With Trudeau At The UN Citing ‘Compressed Schedule’
Trudeau can’t run with the big dogs.
Quote:President Donald Trump has set aside time for talks at the United Nations General Assembly with Egypt’s dictator, the British prime minister, and the French president and yet he won’t have time this week to meet with Canada’s Justin Trudeau.
Trudeau is at the annual gathering in New York City, where he’s due to deliver a speech on Tuesday morning at the Council on Foreign Relations just before Trump’s United Nations remarks.
An informal chat with Trump is all that Trudeau could hope for, however, as the U.S. on Monday confirmed that a meeting with the Canadian prime minister is not on Trump’s schedule.
‘The president’s schedule is very compressed this year in New York, so there were a lot of requests and a lot of desires by the president to have bilaterals that simply couldn’t be accommodated,’ U.S. National Security Advisor John Bolton said.
At a White House press briefing, Bolton told DailyMail.com that President Trump ‘speaks with Prime Minister Trudeau by phone all the time.’
‘And it’s always possible here in New York that they would have time for a pull aside, as we call it,’ Bolton asserted, ‘but there is full and open and complete communication between Prime Minister Trudeau and President Trump, that I can assure you.’
Why exactly Trump was unable to accommodate Trudeau on Monday, even though he had more than five hours of free time on his schedule in New York was left unexplained.
Trump and Trudeau had a falling out after the G7 summit last June in Charlevoix over the president’s steel and aluminum tariffs. The White House says their necessary for national security, but Trump has said point blank that he’s striving to resolve what sees as a massive trade imbalance with the Canadians.
After a happy reunion, Trudeau unleashed on Trump at a press conference after the U.S. leader was already in the air en route to a summit with Kim Jong-un in Singapore.
‘I highlighted directly to the president that Canadians did not take it lightly that the United States has moved forward with significant tariffs,’ Trudeau said at the news conference. ‘Canadians, we’re polite, we’re reasonable, but we will also not be pushed around.’
Trump unloaded on Trudeau in response as ‘very dishonest & weak’ in a tweet as he announced his intent to withdraw from the seven-nation joint communique.
‘Justin’s false statements at his news conference, and the fact that Canada is charging massive Tariffs to our U.S. farmers, workers, and companies, I have instructed our U.S. Reps not to endorse the Communique as we look at Tariffs on automobiles flooding the U.S. Market!’ Trump said.

It will be interesting to see if a Canada can be brought into NAFTA quickly or whether Trump will forge ahead without them and keep it bilateral with Mexico. I strongly suspect Canada, the U.S. and Mexico hammer it all out in the very near term.
Surprised that got thru editing...

This is Trump's biggest victory yet. Maybe the biggest in the history of the US. Believe me.

Give it time.
Prime Minister Fake Eyebrows has been grandstanding and Trump is calling his bluff.
Canada needs trade and trade agreements with the US more than the US needs those from Canada.
Trump KNOWS this. Trump also KNOWS Canada must come back to the table and when they do, he's in a position to cut a better deal for the US.
Crazy like a Fox.

Canadians don't take steel and aluminum tariffs lightly and won't be pushed around = talking trash about Trump?

How about your little ***** making comments in front of the cameras, but only after ensuring Trump was on airforce 1 on his way to the Korean summit.
Its sad that you seem to only care about steel and aluminum when it comes to other countries.

Am I the only person that thinks that Trudeau goes back to his room each night and cries until his mommy tells him how special he is?

RE: Trump Won’t Meet With Trudeau At The UN Citing ‘Compressed Schedule’
Canada is like the cute girl next door that has been all about you since the first but likes to play like she just wants to be friends. She'll pout if you look at another girl, like that hot Japanese chick with the great legs, or that busty English girl that's always shoving them under your face while pretending she's not. Sometimes she'll get huffy at you if you ignore her and declare that she's done with you, but there she is the next day trying to snuggle with you on the couch watching a movie and eating popcorn. You don't mind it so much, but you always tell her to go home every night. You know she has a hope chest filled with shale oil just waiting for the day you make her an honest woman. You know one word from you and her underwear would be on your bedpost. You also know she's a little crazy and could easily become a stalker too, so you keep her at arms' length. She'll pout, she'll huff, she'll go home and slam the door but you know the next day she'll be back in your house eating and drinking up your stuff whether you want her there or not.
