Canada's Minister of Innovation, Science and Industry has strongly criticized the recent decision by the United States to impose tariffs on steel and aluminum imports. The Minister stated that these tariffs are 'totally unjustified' and emphasized that Canada is the largest source of these materials for the US, supporting key industries such as defense, shipbuilding, energy, and automotive.
The Minister further mentioned that Canada's response to these tariffs will be 'clear and calibrated,' indicating that the country is prepared to take action to protect its interests. Additionally, Canada plans to consult with its international partners and carefully examine the details of the tariffs.
