Foreign Affairs Minister Chrystia Freeland has warned the Trump administration that Ottawa is ready to retaliate if the new President imposes tariffs at the border, potentially sparking a trade war between Canada and its largest trading partner.
Ms. Freeland, who met with Donald Trump’s Secretary of State, Rex Tillerson, in Washington on Feb. 8, said she delivered a message that Ottawa has no appetite for tariff walls and is not afraid to fight back.
