OTTAWA — Canada is hitting back against U.S. auto tariffs, slapping a 25 per cent retaliatory border levy on all American-made vehicles not covered by free trade deals but exempting auto parts.
In Ottawa Thursday morning, Prime Minister Mark Carney said Canada would retaliate to part of the new 25 per cent U.S. border levy on foreign-made autos and parts as he warned that more American border levies may be coming on lumber, agriculture, pharmaceuticals and semiconductors.
