Canada may be getting a little more time to deal with U-S tariff threats due a change in priorities during Donald Trump’s entry into the White House.
The president has signed an executive order to study the trade relationship with Canada which tentatively puts implementation of a 25 per cent levy off until February.
Canada’s Ambassador to the U-S Kirsten Hillman says that is an opportunity to focus on how the two countries can work together.
Industry Minister Francois-Phillippe Champagne says Canada should stop playing defence on Trump tariff threat and starting think about going on the offensive.
