The Canadian Chamber of Commerce expresses disappointment over U.S. President Donald Trump's decision to delay tariffs on Canadian goods, stating that the continued threat of tariffs creates ongoing turmoil and uncertainty for businesses, workers, and families. While the 30-day pause offers time for further negotiations, the Chamber emphasizes the need to demonstrate the detrimental effects of tariffs. The U.S. was poised to impose tariffs in response to concerns over illegal immigration and drug trafficking, but Trump agreed to hold off after discussions with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Both leaders outlined plans to address border security issues, including increased patrols and joint efforts to combat organized crime.
