Tariff Tussle: Canada's Brave Stand Against Trump's Protectionism Mark Carney, Governor of the Bank of Canada, has thrown down the gauntlet in the ongoing trade war between Canada and the United States.
In response to US tariffs on its exports, Canada has matched the dollar for dollar with its own tariffs on American goods such as apparel, timber, steel, and aluminum.
While some may view Carney's decision as foolhardy, given Canada's heavy reliance on trade with its southern neighbor, others argue that it is a necessary measure to protect Canadian sovereignty.
