'Build and buy Canadian!': PM Carney launches bold plan to counter Trump’s 100% tariff threat
Canada’s Prime Minister Mark Carney introduced a new 'Buy Canadian' initiative, urging citizens to support domestic businesses and workers. The announcement comes after US President Donald Trump threatened 100% tariffs on Canadian goods if Ottawa moves forward with trade deals involving China, escalating trade tensions. In a video posted on his X account, Carney said the policy is designed to strengthen Canada’s economy and shield it from mounting international pressures.
