Trudeau calls out ‘unjustified’ Trump tariffs on steel, aluminum

We've been down the road before, even though this has a different look and feel to it,

Mr Keiser said

Obviously, the one that we're most concerned about would be direct employment,

Mr Keiser told AAP

I don't think anyone should be surprised about these tariffs or tariff threats,

said Christine McDaniel, a senior research fellow at the Mercatus Center

It's not a tariff per se, it is an action of domestic policy,

Trump's commerce secretary nominee Howard Lutnick told lawmakers at his confirmation hearing last month

The Trump 2.0 tariffs are a direct response to the failed policies of the Biden administration, which allowed China, Russia and many of our allies like Canada, Mexico, Brazil and the EU to manipulate trade and cripple U.S. industry. These measures will revitalize domestic production and safeguard critical industries,

said the official, who was granted anonymity per the ground rules of the call

Given the risks associated with potential tariffs, and the importance of the Canada-U.S. partnership, the hiring of this firm at this time is critical to support enhanced advocacy with representatives in the U.S.,

Given the vital importance of North Carolina on national elections and the firm’s existing relationships with members of the Trump administration, as well as prior D.C. work experience, it only makes sense Checkmate has expanded its federal portfolio and officially entered the K-Street game,

he said

As usual, we hope that it will not come to that,

he said,

Canadians will stand up strongly and firmly if we need to,

Trudeau said at the sidelines of the Paris artificial intelligence summit

Essentially, we’re putting on a 25pc tariff, without exception, on all aluminum and all steel, and it’s going to mean a lot of businesses are going to be opening in the United States.”

Mr Trump said

What is the use of WTO membership when one of the biggest countries in the world can threaten tariffs for national security reasons in such an aggressive way?"

she asked, referring to the World Trade Organization

Today I'm simplifying our tariffs on steel and aluminum,

Trump said in the Oval Office

The fact that global equity indices are higher at the start of the week could be a sign of tariff fatigue,

said Kathleen Brooks, research director at trading group XTB

President Trump has made it clear that an important part of an America First Golden Age is steel production,

National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett told CNBC

This is really damaging the United States' reputation, and I think that's something we need to be concerned about in the long term,

she said

It's definitely upsetting the applecart in terms of how we've been thinking about the role of international trade institutions, international trade rules and trade agreements,

she said

We have a (trade) surplus to Australia, one of the few. And the reason is they buy a lot of airplanes. They are rather far away and need lots of airplanes,

he said

It will obligate other countries to respond. So we're going to see deterioration, and I think worst of all, from Mr. Trump's point of view, is we're going to see a little bit of inflationary pressure as well,

Lavin said

If they charge us, we charge them. If they're at 25 [percent] we're at 25, if they're at 10 we're at 10, And if they're much higher than 25, than that's where we are at too,

Trump said Monday

But when you're talking about a global tariff on steel and aluminum and a tariff on China, you're not going to see a quick response and a quick resolution of these matters,

he said
