NAFTA: Turned down a meeting with Canada PM Trudeau, says Trump

Trump, while speaking at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA), said the US is not "getting along" with Canada.

The US President's comment came at a time the NAFTA negotiations are going on.

Trump has been quoted by BBC, "I must be honest with you, we're not getting along at all with their negotiators."

The President said he turned down the meeting with Trudeau as he did not like Canada's dairy tariffs.

He has once again threatened Canada of imposing taxes on its auto industry.

"[Mr Trudeau's] tariffs are too high and he doesn't seem to want to move and I told him forget about it. And frankly we're thinking about just taxing cars coming in from Canada," the US President has been quoted by BBC.

Not ruling out a possible of a deal involving the US, Canada and Mexico, Trump cleared he is not at all ready to make any compromise.

In early September, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau had cleared that the Liberals won't compromise on culture and dispute resolution during the talks over NAFTA.

Trudeau had said Canada won't sign a new deal if it does not include a dispute resolution mechanism and exemptions from cultural industries.

NAFTA is an agreement which came into force from January 1994 by Canada, Mexico and United States creating a trilateral trade bloc in North America. 

Trump had earlier also alleged that the US faced severe losses in the trade pact with Canada and Mexico.
