U.S. President Donald Trump says the Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement on trade is “irrelevant” to him and Americans don’t need Canadian products.

While touring a Ford plant in Michigan, Trump said he wants to see more cars built in the United States and the U.S. doesn’t need vehicles made in Canada or Mexico.

Asked if he will renegotiate CUSMA, which is up for review this year, Trump said “we can have it or not.”

      Their peat moss imports primarily come from Canada. Some 80 - 90% from what I could find.

      There are a few other suppliers that might be able to step up, but the USA seems to be feeling pretty independent these days… I’m not sure how that would go for them
