    Freeland Proposes $200B Tariff Plan, Relief Package, and Summit to Counter Trump

    19 postsCanadaTrump PolicyEconomicsWorldPoliticsBusiness

    Chrystia Freeland, a candidate for the leadership of Canada's Liberal Party and former finance minister, has proposed a comprehensive strategy to counter U.S. President Donald Trump's threats of imposing 25% tariffs on Canadian goods. Freeland's plan includes releasing a $200 billion retaliation list targeting key U.S. exports such as Florida oranges, Wisconsin dairy products, and Michigan dishwashers. She also advocates for banning U.S. companies from bidding on Canadian federal procurement contracts and convening an international summit with leaders from Mexico, Denmark, Panama, and the European Union to coordinate a joint response. Freeland, who played a key role in trade negotiations during Trump’s first term, emphasized the need for precise and impactful retaliation. Additionally, the Canadian federal government is reportedly preparing a multibillion-dollar relief package for workers and businesses that could be affected by the tariffs. This package, which includes measures such as waiving the waiting period for employment insurance benefits, would require parliamentary approval, delayed until March 24 due to a prorogued Parliament. The tariffs, potentially effective as early as February 1, are part of a broader strategy by Trump to pressure Canada economically and politically. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who announced his resignation earlier this month, will remain in office until a new Liberal leader is chosen on March 9.
