canada. and he's so popular he's been on the cover of rolling stone magazine. d justin's followed in his father's foop steps by making canada same for ill grants from a around the world. >> every time the u.s. sedated another country, like not again. when et we came across the po porder. we see this canadian flag. my wife is sighing. we're going wow. i think that was the et emotional spobs of two americans who were no longer living in the country cob substantiately going to war. f that's a hard thing to take. that's a burden americans have that even progressives i don't think quite get it. >> you don't feel it. >> we didn't expect it. it was just out of the blue. it hit us. it's like, whoa. >> what was the biggest adjustment you and your wife had to make upon moving to dan da. things you weren't prepared for or surprised by. >> the biggest shift was a cultural one. there's some subtle, directed towards americans. i think coming to canada need to be particularly sensitive to our natural air dpans or dumgs. >> when some say if a candidate inwith, i'm moving to can

canada. i want to find out what that is and find out whatever she is doing. i got into show business so i could stop sweeping. it's united shades of north america. i'm headed to canada to see if it's the progressive dream that a lot thinks it. my name is w. kamau bell. as a comedian, i made a living finding humor in the parts of america i don't understand. and now i'm challenging myself to dig deeper. i'm on a mission to reach out and experience all the cultures and believes that add color to this crazy country. this is the "united shades of america." >>> canada. to many americans it's a utopian version of the united states. it's supposed to have everything. like the mom in commercials who nailed the work life balance. allegedly canada has it all, racial harmony. no gun violence and doctors handing out free health care like the weird deuced on college campuses handing out credit card applications don't take it. when the going gets tough some americas talk about getting going. >> canada's immigration website has crashed. >> funny how americans didn't crash mexico's immigration website. b

then we have another one from indonesia and canada, from michael new, who says so canada, from michaelo in both countries. he says he will be thrilled as having significant is achieved but he is happy that these two guys are willing to talk peace rather than threatening each other and the rest of the world nukes. it is interesting, isn't it, to see how different people interpret this around the world. i think the first quote their is the big danger, i think, which is donald trump's instinct to wheel and deal will produce an outcome where it you have the easing of sections north korea without the certain verifiable movement on the nuclear problem. without the certain verifiable movement on the nuclear problemm the meantime, the other big story is the meantime, the other big story is the g7 rest. the daily telegraph has it on its front page, as do many others. donald trump's anger at g7 was a show of strength north korea. what you read between the lines? certainly with some people, this is what they would like a sitting. i think it is a healthy signal to the extent that the north koreans

canada. listen to this. >> so what you are saying to us and to all of your nato allies is that we somehow represent a national security threat to the united states. and i would just say to all of canada's american friends, and there are so many, seriously? >> so what does this say, jim, about the state of relations between right now arguably the closest ally the united states has, certainly the number one trading partner of the united states? >> reporter: it's not very good, wolf. i think she told cnn's dana bash over the weekend that she would describe this as not a trade war, but a bad rift between the u.s. and canada. when the president of the united states says there are national security implications for imposing these trade tariffs and citing the war of 1812, saying that canadians burned down the white house, to the canadian prime minister justin trudeau, it's reached a point where the president of the united states is clearly frustrated that the canadians are pushing back. obviously, this is something that's going to come up in this briefing in just a few moments with larry kudlow, one of th

but they leave canada no choice but to defend our industry, our workers, and our community. i assure you we will maintain the firm resolve to do so. the solution to this unprecedented dispute is for the united states to rescind the tariff on the canadian steel and aluminum, which do not pose any kind of security threat to the united states. in canada it says -- [speaking in native language] >> we will not back down. we have no choice. based on the recommendation which i received recently, innumerable canadians from all political strength share this viewpoint. it is important for us. it is with regret that we take that measure. however, the custom tariffs imposed by the united states leave no choice but to defend our industry, defend our communities, and defend our workers. i assure you that we are absolutely determined to do so. the solution of this dispute with the united states is for this country to cancel the tariffs on steel and aluminum which are no threat to american safety. . . >> thank you very much for your leadership and hard work i wish that we were brought here together that these difficult times and i believe there

yeah so it's clearly going on since there's no national security threat from canada you know this stems from the fact that the administration relied on a particular section in the trade act which allows the president to impose tariffs for national security purposes so they've had to try to justify these measures on national security grounds which you know when it comes to canada or frankly japan and also the e.u. you know he's not particularly credible what about china important question the relationship the two. absolutely i mean i think that's really the game in town the u.s. has outlined very clearly what it thinks the concerns are with chinese trade and investment practices and this is an issue which frankly i think a lot of the g. seven could mobilize behind it is in that sense going to be a missed opportunity for this administration by focusing on the still an enemy of tyrus and upsetting partners and allies i think they're going to lose the scope to bring allies along on a more unified approach to what is really the kate challenge for the united states which is dealing with the c

world trade organization claiming this is a violation of the north american free trade agreement so canada responding to the u.s. actions late last week now we see the same coming from mexico in fact the u.s. president responding to all of this saying that he doesn't see this as being particularly an enormous problem given the fact that he knows that there are negotiations going on right now for the north american free trade agreement agreement that involves the three nations canada the united states and mexico been in place for decades but one that donald trump campaigned saying was lousy for the united states so this is a continuation of donald trump's campaign promises america first protecting american workers he says so what he believes is that there may not be a future for the north american free trade agreement this could have literally the agreement it's been in place for so long now he says that what he's hoping for are separate trade agreements negotiated individually with canada and with mexico certainly the allies not liking this much particularly since the united states using n

because those two countries so the u.s. and canada they have an almost even trade balance so and that is not true if you look at the european union or countries like china so it's hard to understand why the relation got really so tense between the two neighbors here ok and staying on along similar lines general motors has released a statement saying u.s. import tires on cars would be bad for american jobs why is g.m. so worried about import tax. well for once costs are going to increase general motors estimates that on average the cars that they manufacture might increase in cost of goods thinks thousand dollars on average that is true because materials get more expensive but also because they have to import a lot of technology from asian companies for instance and general motors is saying that they're going to have been a disadvantage to the competitors of broughton the stock of general motors last year on wall street almost about two and a half percent on friday and we heard that story that terrorists might be hurting a couple of ti

so, canada's prime minister said he's willing to go, as of july 1, dollar for dollar with president trump on this. and that could risk a trade-war. that means, it puts pressure on prices to go up for consumers, the market to go down as a reaction, and it could hurt corporate profits as well. >> glor: and the question becomes whether this just escalates further at this point. margaret brennan, good to you have here in new york. thank you. president trump today is considering granting clemency to a couple of celebrities with "apprentice" connections and he is giving clemency to a conservative commentator. paula reid has more on this. >> reporter: president trump granted his fifth pardon this morning, tweeting, "we will be giving a full pardon to dinesh d'souza today. he was treated very unfairly by our government." the high-profile conservative film maker and author pleaded guilty in 2014 to arranging illegal campaign contributions. d'souza has said his prosecution was politically motivated. >> i've gone through going to jail. >> reporter: mr. trump also said he is thinking about pardoning

they know which one i'd choose. ( laughter ) so, canada's our enemy now.n fact, according to "the washington post," no u.s. officials have ever spoken this way about any u.s. ally, ever. these are the kind of words that normally precede military action. we're going to war with canada? oh, my god, we're going to have to put alex trebek in a detention center. bet you don't have an answer for that one, do you, you smug bastard! ( laughter ) ( applause ) and what makes this even crazier is that while he's slapping around our allies, he's stroking our enemies: >> this used to be the g-8, not the g-7, and something happened awhile ago, where russia is no longer in. i think it would be an asset to have russia back in. >> stephen: something happened? you mean the invasion of crimea, eastern ukraine, and the shooting down of a passenger jet? did you just yada yada over war crimes? can you do that with any atrocity?

so canada's a positive partner, europe is a positive partner in trade. china is a problem. the president is completely off track. >> so during the g7, the president praised trudeau, the prime minister of canada. that, though, suddenly changed when trudeau had a news conference which caused this pull-out of the communiquÉ by trump, because trudeau vowed american tariffs with tariffs of its own. i want to play the sound bite that got trump so angry. >> i have made it very clear to the president that it is not something we relish doing, but it is something that we absolutely will do, because canadians are polite, we're reasonable, but we also will not be pushed around. >> okay, that's how he put it. trump went def con on twitter, saying prime minister justin trudeau of twitter acted meek and mild during or g7 meetings only to give a news conference after i left, saying he will not be pushed around. very dishonest and weak. our tariffs are in response to his of 270% on dairy. senator, what's your reaction? trudeau comes out in a polite manner but that he'll respond in kind. trum

so canada is great. i love canada. but -- we had a wonderful understanding. you know the story. we hugged, we kissed. everybody was happy. i made some changes in this ridiculous thing that everybody signed. i made some changes. i laughed. everybody was happy. prime minister abe said everybody was in love. i had a big smile. we were friendly. i get on air force one and he doesn't understand that air force one has 22 televisions. so i come on their televisions. they have televisions in areas. unlimited budget, air force one. i get on the plane and i see justin trudeau saying, canada will not be bullied by the united states. i said what are we doing here? the fact is that canada has a 275% tariff on dairy products. their lumber is a disaster with us. i say why don't we use our own lumber? now we're allowed to take it from our fields and regrow it. take lumber under our environmental system. in the old days you couldn't do that. we had to go to other countries. so lumber is a disaster. energy is a disaster. justin said we fought world war i together. we fought world war ii together.

so canada is great. i love canada. we had a wonderful understanding, you know that story.e hugged, we kissed, everybody was happy, i made some changes in this ridiculous thing that every one agreed to sign. i laughed, everybody was happy. prime minister shinzo abe said president trump was right, everyone was in love. they took the picture with angela merkel but if they showed the picture or 2 minutes later, i had a big smile, she had a big smile, we were friendly, everybody. i get onto air force one and he doesn't understand that air force one has 22 televisions. so i come on, they have televisions and closets, areas - unlimited budget, air force one.e. so i get onto the plane, and i see justin trudeau, prime minister of canada, saying, "canada will not be bullied by the united states." i said, what are we doing here? the fact is that canada has a 275% tariff on dairy products, little thing called dairy products. they are lumbar as a disaster with us. i said, wired for using her own lumbar? know we are actually allowed to take lumber from our fields and regrow it, take it

people living in canada coming into the united states and smuggling things back into canada because the tariffs are so massive. the tariffs to get common items back into canada are so high that they have to smuggle them in. they buy shoes, then they wear them. they scuff them up, they make them sound old or look old. no. we're treated horribly. dairy, dairy. 275% tariff. so basically that's a barrier, without saying it's barrier. and i told them, if they don't chair their -- change their ways, we have a tremendous deficit. people say, there's not much of a deficit. they're not including two things. energy and timber. and those are the two big things when it comes to canada. no, we have to change our ways. we can to -- no longer be the stupid country. we want to be the smart country. cheers and applause] so hopefully we'll be able to work it out with canada. we have very good relationships with canada. we have for a long time. and hopefully that will work out. but canada's not going take advantage of the united states any longer. and mexico is not going to take advantage of the united states any longer

summit in singapore where they're going to talk in korea that's more days ali so as for the europeans well i don't know and canada i don't know who's going to step forward if anyone our key correspondent allan thank you alex had a great weekend. so tight he general. now the large french bank is back in the bad spotlight related to the library scandal the london interbank offered rate was manipulated dating back many years in fact i was part of that investigation of my old financial regulatory job well there's new news on soc gen as evidence just released documents senior executives allegedly directed that manipulation themselves libel rates can impact everything anyone purchases on credit from home mortgages or student loans credit cards interest rates the former head of corporate investment banking michael the retail and didier valet who recently resigned are both implicated in the rate rigging scandal on monday the company agreed to pay a fine to u.s. and french authorities of one point three billion dollars related to the matter and a separate libyan bribery case. we've reported and discussed in some detail ju

justin has agreed to cut all tariffs the world trade barriers between canada and the united states so we're very happy right now it is in good shape we are actually working on it and we are actually working on that canada will not change its mind when it comes to the illegal and absolutely unjustified application of tariffs on steel and aluminum ati's to american takes a closer look at the g. seven divisions. probably the past couple of days the world has witnessed increasingly tough talk from the american president who's clearly set on forcing canada and the europeans to accept his administration's stance on tree oh my god every day is saturday night so. we have we have to say he's launched a stern challenges to his counterparts on twitter which he was to say hasn't been well received in diplomatic circles trump has abandoned the traditional etiquette of not openly criticizing other intend to stick with attacking the host of the summit prime minister just for joe as well french president emmanuel beck wrong prime minister trudeau is being so indignant bringing up the relationship tha

right now he's punishing our allies, canada, mexico with tariffs. so it just doesn't make sense politically for him or for our country. >> what are the long-term impacts of an environment where, you know, china gets this sweet deal, and then mexico, canada, eu, are facing tariffs from the u.s.? >> almost as if the poles are being reversed and the north pole is the south pole and vice versa. he's campaigned about being tough on trade deficits and tough on china, but our allies are having the toughest phone calls with president trump, they're leaking the phone calls with president trump. i think the broad and long-term implications here is you go back to a central thing that the president said when he was campaigning and still says, he says the world is laughing at us. what we know is that when we talk to our allies, they're not laughing at us, they're concerned about the directions moving forward. >> they're scratching their heads at the u.s. david gergen who advised many administrations was just on and he said that he looks at this and he worries movin

russia out after russia invaded in crimea and that russia's behavior has not changed since then so canada and other countries don't feel that there's any reason to bring russia back in trump of course has his own special fixation on russia and his relationship with vladimir putin so he continues to push that line but he knows it's not going anywhere and don't just go back to the issue of tariffs and suggestion that there could be this kind of tariff free wells. how far was that she genuinely considered by the meeting and is it is it something that would that kind of reduces the risk of a trade rule where does it leave that the that the current situation there in new this. it's a novel idea we did not hear response from other leaders on that there was kind of a deafening silence after he brought it up in his press conference and noted leaders seem to have been responding to that so far but it would require he said not just a tariff free world also a subsidy free world and that would make things very difficult throughout the world because there are different definitions of what is a state s

have so insulting and says canada is ready to impose its own tariffs in retaliation . first of all we're putting the same kinds of tariffs exactly on steel and aluminum coming from the united states into canada to be directly reciprocal but we are also putting a number of tariffs on consumer goods finished products for which canadians have easy alternatives one of the either made in canada or made from another partner with the tariffs one of the truths about tariffs is they drive up costs for consumers and on top of that these tariffs are going to be hurting american workers and canadian worker the idea that we are somehow a national security threat to the united states is quite frankly insulting and unacceptable mike hanna joins us live now from washington d.c. mike hanna so canada there saying it feels insulted china are replying saying that basically all deals will be off what kind of response is coming out to these statements out of the u.s. well the u.s. at the moment shows no signs of any compromise whatsoever particularly with regard to the statements from the c

most of his rally, most of the growth with all from the traditional trading friends, so mexico, canada, canada and the eu, and they were buying up double—digit figures of us exports. but with the recent implementation of tariffs on those economies, that spells potential trouble ahead to us exports because they promised to retaliate in kind by tariffs. they saw an 8% widening in the trade deficit with china, and this trade deficit is president trump's big bugbear. it is 375 million us dollars. he wants to see that fixed. absolutely. we still don't have any resolution on this ongoing trade spat between the us and china. thank you so much for that update. moving to the aviation sector, and boeing says they will not deliver aircraft are run aero because of us sanctions. the multibillion—dollar sale had been agreed on the back of the iran nuclear deal. us recently withdrew from the agreement so just how damaging will this be for the company? report this to the company chief executive in sydney. when it came toa chief executive in sydney. when it came to a run, we were always in a position w

words, special place in hell, we know these are words usually reserved for dictators and criminals, so canadate baffled us as to why this would happen. one of the largest trading relationships in the world hangs in the balance. canada is the world's largest customer. people wondering now if trump will go through with threats a few months ago to pull out of nafta, and many canadians are wondering when congressional leaders will actually take notice of the language donald trump is using and whether they think this is a shrewd negotiating ploy or dangerous for american business. >> that's a good point, because when it comes to trade and services between the u.s. and cana canada, the u.s. has a surplus when you include services. paula, stand by in ottawa. jim is getting bitterness in paris. what are you hearing, jim? >> if they needed more evidence that the macron-trump romance is over, it came from the presidential palace here just after that angry tweet from trump aboard, a force paris put out this. we can't count on anger and small words. let's be serious and worthy of our people. we spent two

it's his typical way of dealing with disputes and crisis to us seems to be quite isolated here in canada so he is trying to distract the attention from the disputed topics like such as trade or the iran nuclear agreement he is also trying to show that he's not backing of backing down on any issue that he is actually doubling down and that's his strategy and i'm going to ask donald trump this and we have a word to run and this certainly will take many of the other leaders off the g. seven summit by surprise asking russia to come back into this grouping how do you think they're likely to react to this rather unexpected development. well i don't think that it's we will find any leaders here saying that it would be the right point of time to read me to russia to this group and trump by bringing this topic is also trying to show the other leaders that you know i don't need to rely of on you as top allies i can also turn to russia or even to china and this is his typical transactional approach to foreign policy and through diplomacy and alexandra ahead of the summit tensions were already high wha

canada. and, by the way, just so everybody knows, the u.s. has a trade surplus in steel with canada. makes this a bit crazier. but they are very targeted on what they're hitting. and they're targeting very specific, you know, congressional districts, businesses that will be directly are impacted that will impact members of congress and so forth. so while it's only $13 billion, don't underestimate how smart the canadians are about, you know, applying these. and so, you know, we can look at the broad overall number, but, you know, at the micro level if you run a business and you sell to canada and you're impacted by this, you're hurt by it. which is unfortunate. liz: there was a headline in one of the canadian newspapers when i was there two weeks ago that said the gur kin war begins. so apparently they're going to be somehow hit, some maple syrup which i think there are a lot of small syrup makers in vermont. i think you're right when it comes to that. but how to we get off -- you mentioned it as an offramp, but the president has asked for a five-year sunset clause on nafta, the decad

the president also fired off twitter broad sides against canada and france. soow do you interpret his attitude toward traditional u.s. allies? >> making enemies of our allies and friends of our enemies is what he seems to be trying to do. you know, i think a lot of this is just a distraction. there are real trade issues that need to be negotiated, and you need to sit down and talk about those and work those out. that's all fine. and the g-7 meeting could have been a meeting in which that sort of thing was moved along significantly. at the same time that it was looking at issues like climate change, even the terrible plague of plastic in the oceans. those are the kinds of things the g-7 summits are looked at before, but he doesn't really want to do any of that. it's not a club that interests him very much because it's about shared values as much as it is about industrialized economies and he doesn't share those values. he shares the values of vladimir putin apparently, maybe xi jinpi jinping. they were meeting at the same time, yesterday, by the way, and probably

ministration has managed to alienate systematically almost all of the allies who would be involved in this so canada mexico the european union or new additions it's going to be a tense meeting i would imagine canada's prime minister displayed diplomatic anger and announced retaliatory sanctions somehow this is insulting to them the idea that the canadian steel that's in military military vehicles in the united states the canadian aluminum that makes your your fighter jets is somehow now a threat the idea that we are somehow a national security threat to the united states is quite frankly insulting and acceptable. europe's leaders are also irate and threatening sanctions on a litany of iconic american products from levi's jeans to kentucky bourbon to harley davidson motorcycles. all made in the republican states trump needs to keep his party in control of congress in this year's midterm elections instead of celebrating their usual unity diplomats from seven of the world's largest economies are scrambling for common ground there was consensus under trump's predecessor barack obama on iran and climate

president has grown frustrated with the ways of canada and i think he's n'ustrated as well that we hamade more progress in lowering the barriers barriers so more american good kbs exported to canada. >> one of the things for example n e president has focused on again and ag dairy, the dairy sales area. we looked at this today. dairy right now makes up only as i understand it 2/10 of 1 percent of the overall value of goods that are exported to canada. so why the fixation on that? why not look at the larger picture, the larger onlationship. >> one of the reis 2/10 of 1 percent is because quan dame poses tariffs that range from 250% and 300% on cheese, butter and milk. what we are saying is lower the tariffs so we can export dairy goods to canada. our agriculture community has a onship with canada but i could be stronger. we could be exporting more, that is whathe president is etding for, for more access for our goods and se. >> woodruff: let me quote something that senator john mccain said. i'm sure you are familiar with it. r today said, he said to allies americans are pro free trade. we are supporters of these alliances that are based on

canada is also being very strategic, targeting steel, aluminum, whiskey, maple syrup. soprobably be not big of an economic impact, but canada has said over and over these tariffs are insulting, we are your out lie we are not a national security risk. wire with a target -- we are your ally, we are not a national security risk. why are we a target? julie: and this feeds into the nafta negotiations, one would think. how can this effect that? if you ask both mexico and canada, they would say this is separate from the in africa -- nafta negotiations. even after the u.s. tariffs were announced, these continued, some on the minister level, some on the technical continue. that will nafta talks could probably pick back up next week because mexico has an election next weekend, so until then we will not know how fast they can mobilize their new team working with the lame-duck team to get back to the negotiating table. is not impacting nafta as far as we know. julie: jenny leonard joining us from washington. thank you. we'll be talking much more about that mexican election shortly. a

after the g7 summit in canada went so badly. some are asking whether the trump administration is trying to wreck the western alliance. they hosted unprecedented abuse on the leader, justin trudeau. here is some of what mike pompeo had to say. >> we're prepared to take what will be security assurances that are different, unique, than have been provided -- that america has been willing to provide previously. in each of those two countries there are only two people that can make decisions of this magnitude and those two people are going to be sitting in a room together. >> soon enough they will be in the same room and this extraordinary summit is being hosted, as i said, by singapore, the leader of this tiny country met with both kim and trump before they met with each other. prime minister lee hsien loong tells me what he learned from them and what their meeting could mean for the region and the world. we sat down for an exclusive and surprisingly candid interview. >> welcome to the program. >> hello. >> how important is it for si
