Trump offers immediate tariff relief to Canadian aluminum and steel companies that commit to U.S. expansion

The Trump administration is now offering Canadian and Mexican aluminum and steel companies immediate tariff relief if they commit to moving production to the United States in the future.

The U.S published the notice on Thursday during a tense week that saw both American and Canadian officials publicly air their grievances.

“It’s a very aggressive tactic by the United States,” said international trade lawyer William Pellerin. “This really reinforces the approach that we’ve seen from the United States for a while now, which is simply: We win if you lose.”
