TARIFF REPRIEVE
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has just posted on X that U.S. tariffs are being paused for 30 days.
In his post, the Prime Minister wrote:
“I just had a good call with President Trump. Canada is implementing our $1.3 billion border plan — reinforcing the border with new choppers, technology and personnel, enhanced coordination with our American partners, and increased resources to stop the flow of fentanyl. Nearly 10,000 frontline personnel are and will be working on protecting the border.”
The Prime Minister’s post continues:
“In addition, Canada is making new commitments to appoint a Fentanyl Czar, we will list cartels as terrorists, ensure 24/7 eyes on the border, launch a Canada- U.S. Joint Strike Force to combat organized crime, fentanyl and money laundering. I have also signed a new intelligence directive on organized crime and fentanyl and we will be backing it with $200 million.”
And he concluded his post:
“Proposed tariffs will be paused for at least 30 days while we work together.”
