Trump says Canada backing statehood for Palestine makes it ‘very hard' to negotiate U.S. trade deal
Prime Minister Mark Carney and U.S. President Donald Trump meet at the White House in Washington, D.C., on May 6, 2025. (Adrian Wyld / The Canadian Press) U.S. President Donald Trump says Canada backing statehood for Palestine makes it 'very hard' for the United States to achieve a trade deal with its northern neighbour. 'Wow! Canada has just announced that it is backing statehood for Palestine,' Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social. 'That will make it very hard for us to make a Trade Deal with them. Oh' Canada!!!' Trump Truth Social Canada Palestine U.S. President Donald Trump says Canada recognizing statehood of Palestine makes it 'very hard' for two sides to reach trade deal. (Truth Social screenshot) The post comes hours before the president's Aug. 1 trade deadline, in which he's previously stated he would impose 35 per cent tariffs on Canada if the two sides could not come to an agreement. This is a late breaking update. Previous copy from The Canadian Press is below… Prime Minister Mark Carney said on Wednesday that Canada's negotiations with the United States might not conclude by Donald Trump's Aug. 1 deadline as the president added new trade measures that could further hinder some Canadian businesses. Carney said talks have been complex, comprehensive and constructive. He also said they are ongoing and cover 'a broad variety of topics.' 'There are many areas for co-operation between Canada and the United States, including defence spending, security spending, investments, which is one of the reasons why we're having these broader discussions,' Carney said at a news conference in Ottawa. Trump sent a letter to Carney threatening to impose 35 per cent tariffs if Canada doesn't make a trade deal by Friday. The White House has said those duties would not apply to goods compliant with the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement on trade, better known as CUSMA. The Canadian economy is also being slammed by Trump's Section 232 tariffs on steel, aluminum and automobiles. Trump on Wednesday signed executive orders for 50 per cent tariffs on semi-finished copper products starting Friday. The president, however, didn't include imports of the refined metal in his order, leaving many in the Canadian copper industry feeling relieved. In a separate order, Trump suspended de minimis exemptions — which had allowed packages worth $800 or less to ship to the United States to avoid tariffs. As part of his reasoning for the change, Trump cited the flow of fentanyl into the United States. Canadian Federation of Independent Business President and CEO Dan Kelly said suspending the de minimis exemption 'is bad news for many Canadian small businesses.' The federation's data shows about one-third of small Canadian exporters used the exemption to ship to U.S. consumers duty free, Kelly said in a post on social media. Pascal Chan, the vice president of strategic policy and supply chains at the Canadian Chamber of Commerce, said it adds 'another layer of uncertainty for Canadian businesses exporting to the U.S.,' particularly small- and medium-sized businesses. 'Any increase in compliance costs and delivery delays will only serve to compound the pressure on the cross-border supply chains that have long fuelled our shared economic prosperity,' Chan said in a statement. The latest trade changes comes as countries around the world are set to face staggering tariffs when Trump's deadline to make deals passes. Trump announced a deal with South Korea Wednesday which will see the country slapped with a 15 per cent tariff. The president said South Korea 'will give to the United States $350 Billion Dollars for Investments owned and controlled by the United States, and selected by myself, as President. In apost on social media Trump said South Korea will also 'purchase $100 Billion Dollars of LNG, or other Energy products.' In a separate post the president also said he 'concluded a Deal with the Country of Pakistan, whereby Pakistan and the United States will work together on developing their massive Oil Reserves' but Trump didn't provide details of a tariff rate. Frameworks of deals have previously been announced for the European Union, Japan, Vietnam, Indonesia, the Philippines and the United Kingdom — with all nations facing some level of baseline tariff. Not all the details of the deals are clear but Trump has said countries can 'buy down' the tariff rate and most agreements have come with announcements of billion-dollar investments. Trump on Wednesday also escalated his threats against Brazil — which will be hit a 50 per cent duty — and India — which will face a 25 per cent tariff, plus an additional import tax because of India purchases Russian oil. Trump has been dismissive of conversations with Canada, saying it is not a priority for his administration. The president said Wednesday that America's northern neighbour is a high-tariff nation, misrepresenting Canadian duties for agriculture imports. 'They've been charging our farmers 200 per cent, 300 per cent, 400 per cent for years and nobody did anything about it,' Trump told reporters. Carney met virtually with his cabinet earlier Wednesday for a meeting focused largely on the situation in the Middle East. Carney said Canada is seeking the best deal for Canadians and that negotiations will continue until that is achieved. He said Dominic LeBlanc, the minister responsible for Canada-U.S. trade, will remain in Washington with senior officials 'in pursuit of that goal.'

Key Points Adjusted earnings per share (non-GAAP) surpassed estimates at $3.88, compared to the expected $3.79, representing an 18% increase from Q2 2024. GAAP revenue climbed 8% to $5.75 billion, but missed expectations by 0.47%. Americas Commercial HVAC led growth. Full-year 2025 guidance was raised, with adjusted EPS targeted at $13.05 and organic revenue growth expected to reach 8%. These 10 stocks could mint the next wave of millionaires › Trane Technologies Plc (NYSE:TT), a leader in heating, ventilation, air conditioning (HVAC), and refrigeration solutions, delivered its second quarter 2025 results on July 30, 2025. The earnings release highlighted adjusted earnings per share (EPS) of $3.88, beating analyst estimates of $3.79 and marking an 18 % rise from the prior year. Revenue (GAAP) grew 8% to $5.75 billion, slightly under the $5.77 billion GAAP consensus estimate. Overall, the quarter reflected ongoing strength in the Americas, particularly from Commercial HVAC, while management lifted its guidance for the full fiscal year. Metric Q2 2025 Q2 2025 Estimate Q2 2024 Y/Y Change EPS (Non-GAAP) $3.88 $3.79 $3.30 18% Revenue (GAAP) $5.75 billion $5.77 billion $5.31 billion 8% Adjusted Operating Margin 20.3% 19.4% 0.9 pp Adjusted EBITDA $1.25 billion $1.12 billion 12% Free Cash Flow (Non-GAAP) $841 million1 $810 million1 3.8% Source: Analyst estimates provided by FactSet. Management expectations based on management's guidance, as provided in Q1 2025 earnings report. Understanding Trane Technologies Plc's Business Trane Technologies Plc designs, manufactures, and services climate-control solutions for commercial, residential, and transport applications worldwide. Its brands include Trane for HVAC systems and Thermo King for transport refrigeration units and trailer cooling. Products range from large-scale commercial HVAC equipment to advanced residential air conditioners and rental solutions. The company is actively focused on sustainability, recurring revenue through long-term service agreements, and innovation in energy-efficient products. It's recognized for its 'Gigaton Challenge' to reduce customer greenhouse gas emissions, a goal that has become central to its brand and competitive positioning. Key business metrics are influenced by regional performance, strong service segment results, and the ability to manage global supply chains amid regulatory and tariff shifts. Quarter Highlights: Growth in Americas Offsets Global Softness The standout was continued momentum in the Americas, particularly in Commercial HVAC systems. Bookings for the segment reached $4.54 billion, an 8% increase from last year, and net revenue grew 9% year-over-year. Operating margin in the Americas expanded to 22.4%, reflecting both strong pricing and operational productivity. Management noted that 'Bookings strength led by Americas Commercial HVAC applied solutions up over 60 percent.' By contrast, performance outside the Americas was mixed. In the Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) segment, bookings were up just 5%, and organic bookings declined 2%. Margins in EMEA narrowed, with the adjusted operating margin falling to 17.3% due to heavy reinvestment and inflation. The Asia Pacific segment saw bookings drop 16% and revenue slip 7%, weighed down by weaker demand in China and lower volumes overall. Despite these headwinds, Trane highlighted that high-value, service-oriented business lines remain stable, offering some buffer against changes in equipment sales. The company's global backlog was $7.1 billion at June 30, 2025, a 6% increase from year-end, but sequentially decreased by about $125 million. This drop reflected softness in the Residential and Transport businesses, even as Commercial HVAC backlog remained elevated. With 'bespoke applied solutions' cited as a major driver for growth, operationally, positive pricing actions and productivity gains offset most inflationary pressures. Adjusted operating margin was 20.3%, up 0.9 percentage points from Q2 2024. However, management flagged tariffs as a possible risk, estimating an annual $250–275 million cost, to be covered 'dollar for dollar' through pricing and cost-saving efforts. On capital allocation, Trane spent approximately $1.8 billion year-to-date through July, covering dividend payments ($420 million), acquisitions ($275 million), share buybacks ($1 billion), and debt reduction ($150 million) year-to-date through July. Free cash flow (non-GAAP) for the six months ended June 30 was $841 million, a 3.8% improvement over the previous year. Cash and debt balances reflected this activity: cash on hand at quarter end was $774 million (down from $1,326 million a year ago), while debt was reduced to $4.62 billion. The quarterly dividend was raised 12% earlier in the year, effective with the Q1 payment, continuing a multi-year trend of dividend increases. Looking Ahead: Guidance and Investor Focus For FY2025, management increased its outlook, now targeting organic revenue growth of 8% and adjusted EPS of approximately $13.05. The company attributed this confidence to record backlog, resilient pricing, and sustained demand in Commercial HVAC. Management also noted that additional price increases to offset tariffs could provide upside to revenue guidance for the full year, though these are not yet included in official targets as cost and price actions are monitored across key markets. Going forward, areas for investors to watch include the pace at which backlog is converted to revenue, progress in international markets, and any developments in tariff rules or supply chain costs. Residential and Transport remain more volatile, with softer bookings this quarter, Service businesses are expected to provide stability. The company's continued focus on sustainability, innovation, and service offerings is expected to remain central in its strategy as it moves through the rest of the year.
