Pulling Canada into his trade war with China, U.S. President Donald Trump claims Chinese fentanyl continues to "pour" across both borders.
Trump complained on social media today about Chinese airlines refusing to accept Boeing planes to protest his administration's massive tariffs on China.
In his post, he says that fentanyl continues to flow into the U.S. from China through Mexico and Canada.
Trump last month slapped economywide tariffs on Canada, linking the duties to the flow of people and fentanyl across the United States' northern border. He partially paused the levies a few days later.
U.S. data shows a tiny amount of fentanyl is seized at the Canada-U.S. border and the RCMP says there is no evidence of large-scale movement of the drug from Canada into the United States.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said earlier this week there have been "successes" at the Canada-U.S. border.
