Canada is not taking Donald Trump’s tariffs on the country lightly.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau hit back with his own sweeping series of counter-tariffs on U.S.-made products after the Trump administration’s levies on Canadian imports went into effect just after midnight on Tuesday.
“Today, after a 30-day pause, the United States administration has decided to proceed with imposing 25 per cent tariffs on Canadian exports and 10 per cent tariffs on Canadian energy. Let me be unequivocally clear—there is no justification for these actions,” Trudeau said in a statement before the tariffs came into force.
US law provides that counter-tariffs have automatic tariff increases.
