President Donald Trump said Monday that sweeping U.S. tariffs on imports from Canada and Mexico "will go forward" when a month-long delay on their implementation expires next week.

"The tariffs are going forward on time, on schedule," Trump said when asked at a White House press conference if the postponed tariffs on the two U.S. trading partners would soon go back into effect.

The president claimed that the U.S. has "been taken advantage of" by foreign nations on "just about everything," and reiterated his plan to impose so-called reciprocal tariffs.

"So the tariffs will go forward, yes, and we're going to make up a lot of territory," Trump said.

    It’s literally his only offer on how to pay for the absolute nightmare of a bill the house is trying to push. It will always be brought back because to my knowledge he has nothing else to think of. Truly a masterful business man

    Good night, Westley. Good work. Sleep well. I’ll most likely kill you in the morning.
