TORONTO \u2014 Ontario Premier Doug Ford says he and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau are on the same page with a position that Canada will not be compromising on tariffs.<\/p>\n
He suggests Canada will not be removing any of its retaliatory tariffs unless all American tariffs are removed.<\/p>\n
His comments come one day after U.S. President Donald Trump imposed 25 per cent tariffs on Canadian goods, with a lower 10 per cent levy on Canadian energy, and Canada responded with 25 per cent retaliatory tariffs on $30 billion worth of American products.<\/p>\n
Trump announced today that the Big Three automakers will get a one-month exemption on reciprocal tariffs that were set to go into effect on April 2 for any vehicles coming through the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Trade Agreement.<\/p>\n
Ford says a temporary reprieve is not good enough for Canada or Ontario to end its retaliatory measures.<\/p>\n
Trudeau\u2019s office says he spoke with Trump by phone this afternoon.<\/p>\n
