B.C. Jobs Minister Responds to Trump’s 100% Tariff Threat on Films
B.C. Jobs Minister Ravi Kahlon says the government is prepared to support the film sector amid uncertainty over Trump’s 100% tariff threat on foreign films.
- On Monday, U.S. President Donald Trump revived a threat to impose a 100% tariff on movies made outside the United States.
- In response, B.C. Jobs Minister Ravi Kahlon held a hastily announced Zoom media availability and told the B.C. film sector `We're going to be there to support you`.
- The federal government has put in counter-measures and committed significant revenue, while Ravi Kahlon said he is prepared to discuss support `when the time comes` for affected communities and businesses.
- Tariff enforcement would be difficult because the film and TV industry may be written, filmed and edited in different places, and the B.C. government says sector resilience remains strong.
