Prime Minister Justin Trudu crashed into the wide tariffs of Donald Trump in Canada, calling it a “very silent thing” and promised to hold a “tireless fight” to protect his economy.
Trump imposed 25% of the tariffs on the US and Mexico products, and increased the collection of goods coming from China.
The Canadian Prime Minister announced the US export tariffs and warned that the trade war would be expensive for both countries.
But Trump pushed even more in a report of the social truth, saying: “Please explain to the governor of Labor, from Canada that when he put on the tariff for retaliation in the United States, our mutual tariff will immediately increase by a similar amount!”
Trudu accused the US president of planning “the complete collapse of the Canadian economy because it will facilitate us.”
“It will never happen. We will never be a 51st state,” he told reporters on Tuesday.
“It’s a time to affect and demonstrate that there will be no winners in the fight against Canada.”
He said that the main purpose of Canada remains the tariff lifting so that they “do not last for a second longer than necessary.”
Trump said he was defending jobs and production and trying to prevent illegal migration and drug trafficking. The US president said his goal was to squeeze a powerful apioid fentanyl; He has blamed other countries of the US drug arrival.
Responding to the allegations, Trudu said on Tuesday, there was no excuse for new tariffs, since less than 1% fentanyl intercepted at the US border came from Canada.
The words of Trudu were repeated by Mexico President Claudia Sheinbaum, who said “there are no motives, no reason, no justifications” for the Trump step. Speaking on Tuesday, she also promised to issue her own “tariff and non -tariff measures,” but said that additional details would be presented on Sunday.
Experts have said Trump’s tariffs are likely to push consumer prices in the US and abroad.
Three countries focused on leading trading partners in America, and TAT for Tat also caused fear of a broad trade war.
Tariffs are a tax on imports from other countries intended to protect against cheaper competition from other places and raising businesses and jobs at home.
US goods to be imposed by $ 155 billion ($ 107 billion;
- The tariff on C $ 30 billion of goods will immediately take effect
- Tariffs for the remaining $ 125 billion will come into force in 21 days
Immigration Minister of Canada Mark Miller warned that in Canada, one million jobs were at risk when tariffs were implemented, given how intertwined trade between the two countries.
“We cannot replace the economy that is responsible for 80% of our trade for the night, and it will hurt,” he said on Monday.
Speaking to AFP, a car production employee in the Canadian province said that people are really “very afraid” of removal. “I just bought my first home,” Joel Soliaski said. “I may have to look for a job elsewhere.”
The sector is the one that can hit the new tariff regime in North America. Parts of cars can cross the US-Canada border several times throughout the production process, and therefore may be taxed several times.
Prime Minister Ontario Doug Ford, whose province is home to produce Canada’s automobile production, – told reporters On Tuesday, he believes that the plants will “close on both sides of the border” as a result of tariffs.
The tariffs were called the Canadian Trade and Industrial Chamber, whose President Kandas Ling warned that this step would force Canada and the US to “recession, loss of work and economic catastrophe”.
Ms Ling warned that they would also increase the prices of Americans, and make the American business find alternative suppliers who, she said, are “less reliable than Canadian.”
Canadian provincial leaders promised their own answers.
Ford of Antario substantiated the possibility of reducing the Canadian power supply and exports of a full-fledged nickel to the US, as well as putting an export fee of 25% on electricity sent to Power Homes in Michigan, New York and Minnesota.
Canada exports sufficient electricity to provide about six million American houses.
Ontario and other provinces also moved to remove US alcohol from the shelves. In Nova Scotland, Prime Minister Tim Houston said his province would ban US companies to bid on provincial contracts, as well as Will Ontario.
Ford also announced that a $ 100 million contract ($ 68 million.
Meanwhile, China, which is now facing a tariff of 20% after Trump has doubled the previous gathering – promised to fight any trading war “bitter end”. He announced his own counter -merry – including tariffs for a number of American agricultural and food.
