It appears some key industries facing the threat of new U.S. tariffs may be spared from President Donald Trump’s next shot in his global trade war — at least for the moment.
Speaking on background, a White House official told CBC News that despite Trump’s repeated threats about sector-specific tariffs, they may not actually happen next month.
“Obviously POTUS has talked a lot about sectoral tariffs, but we may have sectoral tariffs on April 2 and we may not,” the official said in an email.
