This is from Twitter (currently known as X). I posted the text instead of the links.
This is coming from Daniel Dale of CNN. Here is a link to his CNN profile.

Daniel Dale is a senior reporter in CNN's Washington Bureau, where he fact-checks political claims.

The attached image below is from the USMCA (US, Mexico & Canada Agreement) that Pendejo45 negotiated.

The president lied that there's a low tariff on merely "the first little carton of milk" exported to Canada, but after that, it's a massive Canadian tariff. In fact, *as negotiated by Trump's first administration in the USMCA,* *tens of thousands of metric tons per year* of US milk exports to Canada are *tariff-free* - and *the US isn't even exporting half the tariff-free maximum,* so the tariffs aren't close to being applied.

There is a complicated debate about why the US isn't coming close to its tariff-free quota maximum; the US industry alleges administrative shenanigans by Canada, Canada says that's nonsense. Regardless, the claim that only a tiny quantity of US milk is tariff-free is very false.

This is Trump's first administration correctly touting how the USMCA got Canada to agree to tens of thousands of tariff-free tons of US milk imports per year: https://ustr.gov/trade-agreements/free-trade-agreements/united-states-mexico-canada-agreement/fact-sheets/market-access-and-dairy-outcomes
