Trump’s Tariffs Return—But This Time from Canada

📝 DESCRIPTION
Trump’s Tariffs Return—But This Time from Canada.
On June 27, Prime Minister Mark Carney announced a bold move: mirroring Donald Trump’s 50% steel tariff strategy, Ottawa has slapped new limits on steel imports from countries like China—aiming to protect Canada’s crumbling domestic industry.

The decision comes after Trump doubled U.S. steel tariffs earlier this year, a move that hit Canadian manufacturers hard. In just three months, nearly 43,000 manufacturing jobs disappeared. The response from Ottawa? A delayed echo—strong in rhetoric, but criticized by industry leaders as “long overdue.”

This video breaks down the high-stakes economic chess match between the U.S. and Canada, exposing the political calculus behind tariff wars, the real-world fallout for workers, and the deeper question: Is this about protecting Canadian jobs—or protecting political reputations?

Steel and aluminum support over 150,000 jobs in this country. But with global markets shifting and trade alliances cracking, does this new quota mark a turning point—or a desperate bluff?

What does it mean for Canada’s sovereignty when we only act in response to American muscle?
Is this the start of a self-sufficient Canadian economy—or just a shadow of Trump’s policy playbook?
