Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney responded to President Trump's announcement about new U.S. tariffs, saying Canada will act with purpose and with force to fight new U.S. tariffs. | |
| President Donald Trump imposed a new 25% tariff on foreign-made cars, but spared Canada from the 10% reciprocal tariffs applied to many other countries. | ||
| The Canadian Prime Minister spoke from Parliament Hill. | ||
| So, President Trump has just announced a series of measures that are going to fundamentally change the international trading system. | ||
| Now, in doing so, he has preserved a number of important elements of our relationship-the commercial relationship between Canada and the United States. | ||
| But the fentanyl tariffs still remain in place, as do the tariffs for steel and aluminum. | ||
| As of this evening, the tariffs on automobiles will enter into force, and the U.S. has signaled that there will be additional tariffs in so-called strategic sectors, pharmaceuticals, lumber, and semiconductors. | ||
| So, we're in a situation where there is going to be an impact on the U.S. economy, which will build with time. | ||
