Canada Rejects U.S. Tariffs Firmly | Canada News
Description
Canada’s Prime Minister Mark Carney has defiantly rejected the U.S.’s 50% tariffs, vowing to protect Canadian jobs and economic sovereignty with a united front. In response, Ottawa slapped retaliatory duties on U.S. goods and unveiled a $7.5 billion support package for affected businesses. Opposition leaders weighed in — NDP’s Avi Lewis backed the stance but called for stronger worker protections; Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre demanded Parliament be recalled and more concrete action; Bloc Québécois’ Yves-François Blanchet signaled resistance to further compromises on supply management, while Poilievre proposed bold tax and investment reforms as the nation braces for a new trade showdown.
