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.
The news sent shockwaves through industries dependent on steel and aluminum, forcing businesses to scramble for solutions to mitigate the expected increase in costs.
Trump had already implemented a 10% tariff on Chinese goods, effective February 4, with China quickly retaliating. Additionally, he postponed a 25% tariff on Mexico and Canada for a month, allowing time for negotiations over U.S. border security and measures to combat fentanyl trafficking.
While some U.S. workers supported the tariffs, many manufacturing companies expressed deep concern. They warned that the tariff hike would have a ripple effect across supply chains, impacting businesses that depend on these essential materials.
