B.C. premier says province prepared to retaliate against Trump’s tariff threats [Video]

B.C. Premier David Eby has announced his support for retaliatory measures against the United States, including tariffs, after U.S. President-elect Donald Trump threatened to impose a 25 per cent tariff on Canadian goods. 

Trump has said he will levy a blanket 25 per cent tariff on Canadian goods if the country doesn’t crack down on the number of migrants and drugs entering the U.S.

“Nothing is off the table,” Eby said Thursday during an unrelated news conference. “We are prepared to support retaliatory tariffs in response to the United States that gets their attention and helps them understand the consequences for British Columbians and Americans.”
