Carney in Ottawa today for cabinet committee meeting on U.S. relations
OTTAWA — Prime Minister Mark Carney has suspended his election campaign yet again to deal with the fallout of U.S. tariffs.
Carney is expected to chair a meeting this morning with his cabinet committee on Canada-U.S. relations and national security.
U.S. President Donald Trump abruptly reversed course on his trade war Wednesday by pausing his so-called “reciprocal” tariffs for 90 days, keeping in place a universal 10 per cent tariff, as well as 25 per cent duties on steel, aluminum and automobile imports to the United States.
U.S. tariffs on Canada have not changed.
