Canada presents response tasks on the assets of the United States

“The tasks against Canada will endanger their works (…) their expenses will grow due to them, including the cost of food in stores and gasoline at service stations,” Trudeau said at a press conference in Ottawa , referring to Americans ((an appointment for reuters).

According to the Prime Minister, the duties of assets of the United States worth 30 billion Canadian dollars ($ 20.6 billion) will enter into force on Tuesday, February 4. After 21 days, another 125 billion Canadian dollars ($ 86 billion).

Trudeau added that tariffs will have “consequences of greater reach and will apply to everyday products”, such as alcohol, fruits, vegetables, clothing and shoes.

Trudeau’s statement was made a few hours after Donald Trump ordered to introduce 25%of the duties of the assets of Canada and Mexico, as well as 10%of China’s tasks. In addition, the United States introduces 10%tariffs over the entire import of Canada’s energy.

According to the US president, these measures are introduced in response to the importation of synthetic opiatanyl opiates, as well as due to a shortage of commercial balance with these countries.

Trump also added that these states “cannot do anything to avoid duties.”

Mexico, such as Canada, plans to take measures in response to state actions.

“I instruct the Minister of Economy to implement Plan B, in which we are working and includes tariff and non -tariff measures in defense of Mexico’s interests,” Mexican president Claudia Sheinbaum wrote in her X account.
