Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said on Wednesday that U.S. President Trump's "unreasonable" 25% tariff on imported automobiles would harm Canada's economy.

Kearney stated that he would meet with ministers from the U.S.-Canada Cabinet Committee on Thursday to discuss trade options, including retaliatory tariffs on American products. Ontario Premier Doug Ford mentioned that he would encourage Kearney to impose tariffs on U.S.-made automobiles. Canada's automotive-related industries are primarily concentrated in Ontario.

Kearney stated before a planned campaign rally in London, Ontario: "This will harm us." He said these tariffs are a "direct blow" to Canadian workers and businesses, and that Trump "betrayed" the North American trade agreement he renegotiated during his first presidential term, namely the USMCA. Kearney added: "We will defend our workers, we will defend our businesses, we will defend our country."

"Trump's auto tariffs are a rather significant action and are completely unreasonable. This is completely inconsistent with the US-Mexico-Canada Agreement and, in fact, does not align with the long-standing relationships in the automotive industry." BMO Capital Markets estimates that the automotive industry accounts for 7% of trade-related jobs between the U.S. and Canada.

Earlier on Wednesday, Carney said at a campaign event in Windsor, a border city in Ontario, that if elected, he would establish a fund exceeding 1 billion Canadian dollars to help the Canadian auto industry应对特朗普政府贸易政策的影响。该基金的另一个目标是建立一个“全加拿大”的汽车制造网络，他说，这将限制加拿大制造的汽车组装零部件跨越美加边境的次数。 Earlier on Wednesday, Carney said at a campaign event in Windsor, a border city in Ontario, that if elected, he would establish a fund exceeding 1 billion Canadian dollars to help the Canadian auto industry应对特朗普政府贸易政策的影响。 The other goal of the fund is to create a "pan-Canadian" automotive manufacturing network, he said, which would limit the number of times Canadian-made auto parts cross the US-Canada border for assembly.
