„Wir können uns nicht zurücklehnen“: Kanadas Ministerpräsidenten erwägen Vergeltungsoptionen gegen Trump

Canada’s provincial premiers are preparing a list of potential retaliatory measures in response to President-elect Donald Trump’s threat to impose 25% tariffs on all goods imported from Canada. Ontario Premier Doug Ford indicated that the provinces might consider significant actions, including cutting off energy supplies to the U.S. Canada is a key exporter of oil, gas, and other energy resources to the U.S., making such measures impactful. Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland noted that provincial leaders support a strong Canadian response and mentioned the importance of critical minerals and metals in their discussions. Despite Trump’s claims regarding tariffs being linked to migration and fentanyl issues, Canadian officials emphasize that the flow of these issues from Canada is minimal compared to that from Mexico.
