Amid escalating trade hostilities from Trump’s high‑tariff agenda, Canada is forging a bold new path.
Industry Minister Mélanie Joly announced Ottawa’s plan to defend jobs and supply chains by intensifying economic diplomacy and forging trade ties beyond the U.S. “While the U.S. becomes weaker,” Joly declared, “we will become stronger.” With Washington threatening a sweeping 35% tariff starting August 1—and even mooting 50% levies on copper and 200% on pharmaceuticals—Canada is accelerating deals with the EU and diversifying its export strategy.
Prime Minister Mark Carney called urgent cabinet and provincial meetings to map out the response and signal unity.
Ottawa remains poised not just to withstand the U.S. onslaught but to come out fortified.
As global unpredictability grows, Canada is betting big on economic resilience and a multipolar trade future.
