Canada “will not proceed with the second wave of tariffs” on billions of U.S. goods, said the country’s finance minister, after the U.S. announced it was halting the implementation of some tariffs against Canada, as reported by the BBC.
In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Dominic LeBlanc stated that the tariffs would be postponed until April 2 – the same date as the U.S. tariffs – “while we continue to work on the removal of all tariffs.”
However, Ontario Premier Doug Ford said that “a pause in some tariffs means nothing” and “until President Trump permanently removes the threat of tariffs, we will remain relentless.”
“The only thing that is certain today is more uncertainty,” he wrote in a post on X.
