Trump trade chief warns Canada walked away from 'the best deal' to trigger 50% U.S. tariffs
U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said Canada walked away from "the best deal" to preserve its trade barriers against American goods, as 50% tariffs on roughly $20 billion worth of Canadian imports took effect Saturday with no further talks scheduled. "Our interest is in protecting American workers and protecting American supply chains." "They've always had the best deal, and they still would have an even better deal, but they didn't want that."
