In a bold response to new US tariffs, Canada has fired back with its own 25% levy on C$30 billion worth of American imports. 🇨🇦 Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau didn't hold back, calling the US measures an attack on Canada's economy and vowing action at the WTO. 💼
CGTN's Xia Cheng sat down with St. Thomas Mayor Joe Preston, whose Ontario community feels the pinch of trade tensions. 'Our factories and workers deserve fairness,' Preston told us, highlighting how cross-border policies impact local jobs. 🏭
But there's hope on the horizon: 'We’re ready to collaborate globally,' Preston added, suggesting a united front could counterbalance trade pressures. 🌐 With both federal and local leaders leaning into diplomacy, Canada's strategy resembles a real-world Avengers assembly – minus the capes. 😉
As Washington and Ottawa exchange economic jabs, young professionals are watching closely: these tariffs could reshape North American supply chains, tech partnerships, and even your next car purchase. 🚗💡
