Canada announces retaliatory measures on U.S. steel, aluminum tariffs
CANADA, JUN 20 – Canada will adjust counter-tariffs on U.S. steel and aluminum based on trade negotiation progress and protect domestic industries with new quotas and procurement rules, Prime Minister Mark Carney said.
- In March 2025, Canada implemented retaliatory tariffs of 25 percent on steel and aluminum goods imported from the U.S. in response to American tariff increases.
- This action followed U.S. President Donald Trump doubling tariffs on steel and aluminum to 50 per cent in early June to protect American workers.
- Canada established two separate groups focused on steel and aluminum to oversee trade developments and introduced new federal procurement policies prioritizing the use of Canadian materials.
- Prime Minister Mark Carney said counter-tariffs will be adjusted after July 21 to match progress in U.S. trade talks, while Algoma Steel's CEO urged immediate antidumping tariffs on other countries.
- The measures aim to protect Canadian steel and aluminum industries amid market disruptions caused by U.S. tariffs and ongoing negotiations.
