President Donald Trump has been consistently making false claims about Canada, particularly regarding military spending, trade deficits, and trade reliance on the US. In recent interviews, Trump misrepresented Canada’s military spending as the lowest in the world and exaggerated the US trade deficit with Canada. Fact-checking reveals that Canada ranks higher in defense spending than Trump claimed and the trade deficit is significantly lower than his assertions.

Furthermore, Trump’s statements about Canada’s trade reliance on the US were found to be exaggerated. While Canada does have a significant trade relationship with the US, Trump’s claim of Canada doing 95% of its business with the US is inaccurate. Additionally, Trump has made several other false claims about Canada in 2025, including misrepresentations about defense spending, Canadians’ views on becoming the 51st state, Canada’s tariffs, dairy tariffs, agricultural imports, and banking regulations.

These inaccuracies by Trump have been debunked through official data and fact-checking reports. Despite Trump’s persistent claims, the reality of Canada’s economic and trade relationships with the US differs from his assertions. It is crucial to fact-check and verify information to ensure accuracy and avoid spreading misinformation about international relations.
