Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney warned that Americans will experience “damage” and “pain” as he announced Thursday that his country will impose tariffs on U.S. vehicle imports in response to President Donald Trump‘s newly implemented 25 percent auto tariffs, which took effect the same day.
“Given the prospective damage to their own people the American administration should eventually change course,” Carney said. “Although their policy will hurt American families, until that pain becomes impossible to ignore, I do not believe they will change direction, so the road to that point may indeed be long. And will be hard on Canadians just as it will be on other partners of the United States.”
