Thirteen Canadian premiers visited Washington, D.C. on February 12 to meet with U.S. lawmakers, seeking to prevent President Trump’s tariffs on steel and aluminum imports, which threaten industries reliant on these materials.
On Wednesday, February 12, thirteen Canadian premiers traveled to Washington, D.C., to meet with U.S. senators and members of Congress in an effort to block President Donald Trump's decision to impose tariffs on steel and aluminum imports. The move followed Trump’s surprising announcement on March 10 that tariffs would be applied starting March 12. The decision sparked backlash from Canada, Mexico, the European Union, and others, while Japan and Australia sought exemptions.
