Canada to announce retaliatory tariffs against US as Trump tells its leaders to ‘fall in line’
The Canadian government is preparing to impose retaliatory tariffs on the United States, escalating the trade dispute that intensified following the collapse of negotiations with the Trump administration. Prime Minister Mark Carney announced that Ottawa may utilize more targeted measures to safeguard Canadian workers and businesses, potentially deviating from matching US tariffs dollar for dollar.
US President Donald Trump escalated the conflict on Monday, urging Canadian leaders to comply or face severe consequences, including the threat of imposing 50 per cent tariffs on Canadian vehicles, auto parts, and steel. This prompted Carney to accuse Washington of attempting to subordinate Canada and dismantle key Canadian industries.
He emphasized that an attitude at the negotiating table, perceiving Canada as a subsidiary of the United States, would not be tolerated.
