Canada will retaliate if the U.S. imposes tariffs, Prime Minister Mark Carney warned on Tuesday.
Canada will take a measured approach in its response should U.S. President Donald Trump move forward with his proposed tariffs, Prime Minister Mark Carney stated on Tuesday (1 April).
Speaking to journalists in Winnipeg, Carney stressed that Canada would not allow itself to be undermined by American policies.
“I will reject any and all attempts to weaken Canada—to wear us down, to break us down, so that America can dominate us,” he said, referring to a recent discussion with Trump.
He also highlighted that Canadian officials, including International Trade and Intergovernmental Affairs Minister Dominic LeBlanc, have maintained close communication with U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick to manage the situation.
“That dialogue is ongoing,” Carney noted.
The prime minister reaffirmed that Canada stands ready to retaliate if the United States implements further measures.
“We will respond accordingly. If additional measures are imposed on Canada, we will introduce countermeasures of our own,” he cautioned.
Carney further assured that Ottawa would take steps to prevent Canadian businesses and workers from being placed at a disadvantage compared to their American counterparts, though he did not elaborate on specific actions.
