President Donald Trump said he would go ahead with plans toﷺ impose 25% tariffs on imports from the U.S.'s two largest trading partners, Canada and Mexico, on Saturday.

Trump said Thursday that the tariffs are aimeꦦd at getting Ottawa and Mexico City to stem the flow of drugs and migrants into the U.S., and address the deficits𒁃 the U.S. holds with those countries. 

"We'll be announcing the tariffs on Canada and Mexico for a number of reasons," Trump said. "Number one is the people that have poured into our country so horribly and so much. Number two are the drugs, fentanyl and everything else that have come into the country. And number three are the massive subsidies that we're giving to Canada and to Mexico in the form of deficits."
