President Donald Trump spoke with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney about wildfire smoke. He suggested Canada should pay damages for the pollution affecting the United States. Trump had previously accused Canada of wilful negligence regarding the smoke. The unhealthy air quality alerts were triggered by smoke from Canada. This situation occurred after the World Cup final match on Sunday.

Donald Trump has threatened to impose tariffs on Canada over wildfire smoke that is choking US cities.

The smoke coming from active wildfires in Canada has led to unhealthy air quality in swaths of the U.S., which could affect the World Cup final in New Jersey.

Trump blamed Canada for wildfire smoke and called for more tariffs, accusing the country of mismanaging its forests.
