Canadian Government responds after Trump’s tariff defeat

“The United States Supreme Court’s decision reinforces Canada’s position that the IEEPA tariffs imposed by the United States are unjustified,” said Canada-US Trade Minister Dominic LeBlanc.

Dominic LeBlanc, Minister for Canada-US Trade, has issued a response to the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision to strike down a large portion of Trump’s tariff agenda. You can read his response below:

“The United States Supreme Court’s decision reinforces Canada’s position that the IEEPA tariffs imposed by the United States are unjustified.

While Canada has the best trade deal with the United States of any trading partner, we recognize that critical work lies ahead to support Canadian businesses and workers who remain affected by Section 232 tariffs on steel, aluminum and automotive sectors.

Through a period of transformation in Canada’s relationship with the United States and as we approach the first joint review of the Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement, we are working to create growth and opportunities on both sides of the border, while strengthening our collaboration with reliable trading partners and allies around the world.”
