Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney says Trump’s auto tariffs mark a permanent shift in Canada’s relationship with the U.S.
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney has declared that the country's traditional relationship with the United States—rooted in economic integration and close security and military cooperation—is over.
Speaking in Ottawa following a cabinet meeting, Carney said Canadians must fundamentally reimagine the economy in response to U.S. President Donald Trump's tariffs.
Trump announced Wednesday that imported vehicles and vehicle parts would be hit with a 25% tax.
Carney said Canada would respond with retaliatory tariffs designed to have "maximum impact" on the U.S.
The planned 25% levy, set to take effect next week, poses a serious threat to Canada’s auto industry, which directly employs an estimated 125,000 people and supports nearly 500,000 more in related sectors.
Following Trump's announcement, Carney paused his campaign ahead of Canada’s April 28 election to return to Ottawa for a cabinet meeting focused on trade war strategy.
He called the auto tariffs "unjustified" and said they violate existing trade agreements between the two countries.
Carney also warned that Trump has permanently altered U.S.-Canada relations, and that, regardless of any future trade deals, there is no going back.
