B.C.’s Eby Urges Carney to Look Beyond Tariff Response in U.S.-Canada Trade War

Carney said Canada will answer new U.S. tariffs dollar for dollar as he seeks to protect jobs and industry amid escalating trade tensions.

  • On Tuesday, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney announced tariff countermeasures, vowing to match U.S. duties "dollar for dollar" while introducing $7.5 billion in measures to support domestic workers and businesses.
  • The announcement follows the collapse of trade talks last week and the Trump administration's imposition of 50% tariffs on roughly $20 billion of Canadian goods, ranging from honey to sports equipment.
  • Starting September 8, Ottawa will impose steeper tariffs on more than 700 U.S. products, with rates reaching 50% on items like steel and smartphones.
  • Carney maintains broad domestic support, with approval ratings rising to 60% last week, while Ontario Premier Doug Ford and Manitoba social democrat Wab Kinew endorsed his firm approach.
  • Businesses in Bellingham, Washington, face economic strain as cross-border traffic plummets, while analysts warn the trade war could drive manufacturing out of industrial hubs like southwestern Ontario.
