Carney says Trump’s tariffs hurt Americans as US alleges Canadian interference
The plan includes CA$5.2 billion for steelmakers and CA$2.5 billion for automakers as Carney says tariffs have raised costs for U.S. families.
- On Wednesday, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney unveiled a $6.2 billion plan to shield Ontario's manufacturing sector, criticizing President Donald Trump's tariffs for driving up costs and upending a decades-old trade relationship.
- President Donald Trump previously imposed 50% tariffs on about $20 billion in Canadian goods, prompting retaliation. Carney noted U.S. exports to Canada dropped more than 20%, while Canadian auto exports to the U.S. fell more than 10%.
- The $6.2 billion initiative allocates $3.7 billion for steelmakers and $1.8 billion for automakers to protect Ontario's manufacturing heartland. It includes federal funding matching Ontario's commitment for roads to northern Ontario's mineral-rich Ring of Fire.
- Accusing Canadian politicians of seeking to influence American politics, the U.S. Embassy singled out Industry Minister Joly and Ontario Premier Doug Ford. Ford denied the allegations, stating he had "no interest at all" in interfering.
- Ford stated that Canada's relationship with the United States has changed permanently, signaling no return to prior arrangements. Carney has prioritized reducing Canada's dependence on the U.S., setting a goal to double exports to other markets over the next decade.
