Ottawa planning pandemic-level relief for workers, businesses if Trump imposes tariffs: Report
- The Canadian government, led by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, is reportedly planning a pandemic-style bailout program if President Donald Trump imposes tariffs on February 1, as reported by The Globe and Mail.
- The bailout would require approval from the Canadian Parliament, which is currently paralyzed until at least March 24, limiting action before the tariff deadline.
- The opposition Conservative Party, led by Pierre Poilievre, has criticized the Liberal government's handling of the situation and called for a return to Parliament to address the tariff threat.
- Premiers Doug Ford and François Legault are also preparing plans to support businesses and individuals in response to potential tariffs, though concerns about inflation and government spending persist.
