Threat met with a call to action by the Canadian Chamber of Commerce
Business and political leaders in Canada say there will be pain if Donald Trump follows through on his pledge to impose a 25 per cent tariff on all Canadian goods, but they note the hurt will happen in his country as well.
The chamber’s president and CEO Candace Laing said that “being America’s ‘nice neighbour’ won’t get us anywhere.” The two leaders agreed to stay in touch. Trudeau said he also had calls with Ontario Premier Doug Ford and Quebec Premier François Legault, and agreed to hold a first ministers meeting this week “to talk about the United States.”“The ‘Team Canada’ approach is what works.”
The Canadian dollar traded for 71.02 cents US early Tuesday morning, down from 71.53 cents US on Monday.
