Primary metals, food and beverage, chemicals, machinery and aerospace are the domestic economic sectors most exposed to the risk of president-elect Donald Trump's threatened 25% tariff on all Canadian goods sold into the U.S. That's according to a sectoral analysis published Friday by Desjardins.
The article from Advisor.ca discusses the significant economic threat posed by U.S. President Donald Trump's tariff policies to Canada. It highlights how Trump's imposition of tariffs on steel and aluminum, along with threats of further tariffs on automobiles, has created uncertainty and potential economic disruption for Canada, which relies heavily on trade with the U.S. The article notes that these tariffs could lead to retaliatory measures from Canada, potentially escalating into a broader trade war. This situation has caused concern among Canadian businesses and policymakers, as it could negatively impact industries like manufacturing, agriculture, and energy, which are deeply integrated with the U.S. market. Furthermore, the article mentions the ongoing negotiations for the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), now known as the USMCA, where these tariffs add complexity and urgency to reaching a favorable trade deal. The overarching theme is the vulnerability of the Canadian economy to U.S. trade policy decisions, emphasizing the need for strategic responses to mitigate potential economic fallout.
