Canada BOWS DOWN to Trump’s PRESSURE | Rescinds Digital Tax after Trump ‘KILLED’ Trade talks

Canada has officially scrapped its controversial 3% Digital Services Tax after former U.S. President Donald Trump halted all trade talks and threatened new tariffs. The tax, set to target tech giants like Amazon, Google, and Meta, faced intense U.S. backlash. Finance Minister Champagne said rescinding the tax is essential to reviving stalled negotiations. Ottawa had previously vowed not to yield, but with over 80% of Canadian exports reliant on the U.S., the rollback clears the way for renewed talks ahead of a July 21, 2025 deadline. #Canada #DigitalTax #Trump #USCanadaTrade #TradeTalks #Amazon #Meta #Google #TechTax #TariffThreat #DigitalServicesTax #Ottawa #MarkCarney #USExports #TradeFreeze #BreakingNews #EconomicPolicy #TradeDeal #CanadaUSRelations #FinanceMinister #TradeReversal #DigitalEconomy #CanadaBacktracks #TrumpTariffs #TaxRollback #BilateralTalks #GlobalTrade Also Read Canadian’s Viral Post Slams Sky-High Bengaluru Deposits: ‘I Could Buy A Thar Instead!’ :: https://www.oneindia.com/bengaluru/canadian-s-viral-post-slams-sky-high-bengaluru-deposits-i-could-buy-a-thar-instead-7786205.html?ref=DMDesc Indian Student Chants ‘Shankar Bhagwan Ki Jai’ At Graduation In Canada, Video Goes Viral :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/indian-student-chants-shankar-bhagwan-ki-jai-video-goes-viral-canada-011-7785461.html?ref=DMDesc ‘Great American Pilots Very Upset’: Trump Flips Again on Iran Strike Damage :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-debates-us-strikes-impact-on-iran-nuclear-programme-011-7783495.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.103~
