#Canada PM Justin #Trudeau in his speech Saturday reached out to Americans & reminded them that these #TrumpTariffs will hurt them economically just as much as Canadians.

The tariffs will “put your #jobs at risk, potentially shutting down American #auto assembly plants & other manufacturing facilities. They will raise #costs for you, including #food at the #grocery stores & gas at the pump.” In emotional references to the nations’ shared history, he adds: “we have fought, & died, beside you.”
Prime Minister Justin #Trudeau says #Canada will retaliate by placing 25% tariffs on $106B worth of American products.

Trudeau says Canada’s retaliatory #tariffs against the #UnitedStates will start with 25% tariffs on approximately $20B worth of US goods on Tues, with $85B more to follow within 3 weeks, to permit Canadian #SupplyChains to adjust.

#Trudeau says Canadians are “perplexed why our closest friends & neighbors are choosing to target us instead of so many other challenging parts of the world.” He adds: “I don’t think there’s a lot of Americans who wake up in the morning, saying ‘Oh, damn, Canada. Oh, we should really go after Canada.’”

Trudeau calls on Canadians to choose Canadian goods, to forgo Florida orange juice, Kentucky bourbon, or holidays in the United States.
