President Trump's implementation of tariffs on Canadian and Mexican goods has escalated tensions between these nations. Starting Tuesday, Canada and Mexico faced a 25% tariff on certain imports, while China faced a 10% tariff. Prime Minister Trudeau refuted claims linking Canada to U.S. illegal immigration and drug trafficking, citing minimal statistics. Trudeau announced reciprocal tariffs on $155 billion of American goods, indicating a formal response to U.S. actions. Experts noted a lack of diplomatic dialogue, emphasizing the emotional and relational strains placed on U.S.-Canada relations with these trade moves.
On the Canadian side, there's almost a sense of betrayal, said Terri Givens PhD, a professor at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada.
I am announcing Canada will be responding to the U.S. trade action with 25% tariffs against $155 billion worth of American goods.
