Episode Details

British Columbia’s Premier David Eby is firing back at U.S. tariffs with a bold threat: Canada could block U.S. access to critical minerals if the tariffs on Canadian lumber and other goods continue. Calling the U.S. hypocrisy, Eby insists Canada won’t back down from its boycott of American alcohol. With 13.7% of B.C.’s exports at risk — the highest in the country — the dispute is escalating. Other premiers are weighing in too: Ontario suggests blocking oil and potash, but Saskatchewan quickly shuts that down — since it’s the only potash producer. Experts warn such moves could trigger a major trade war. Prime Minister Trudeau vows to defend the Canadian economy, and his upcoming press conference may reveal a national strategy amid growing provincial tensions.
