Canada Issues Series of ‘Liberation Day’ Warnings to Donald Trump [Video]

Canadian officials have warned U.S. President Donald Trump that the imposition of further tariffs will harm the American economy and merit a firm response from Ottawa.

“We will put in place retaliatory measures if there are additional measures put against Canada tomorrow,” Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said at a rally in Winnipeg on Tuesday.

Newsweek has contacted the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative for comment.

Why It Matters

Canada’s relationship with the U.S. has grown increasingly fractious, in part because of Trump’s imposition of tariffs on the country and his repeated threats to transform it into the U.S.’s “51st state.”

Canada has been a major focus of the Trump administration’s aggressive overhaul of the U.S.’s free trade practices, subjecting it to country-specific tariffs alongside China and Mexico. As a neighbor and critical trading partner, Canada is also expected to be particularly affected by Trump’s duties on steel and aluminum and newly announced tariffs on automobile imports
