Canada’s foreign minister is warning Americans they will be paying a “Trump tariff tax” if President-elect Donald Trump follows through with a threat of imposing a 25% tariff on all Canadian goods.

OTTAWA (Reuters) - Canada is ready to respond to tariffs from its top trade partner the United States on Monday if President-elect Donald Trump follows through on his threat to impose them, Foreign Minister Melanie Joly said on Friday.

Canadian PM Justin Trudeau said that if a “worst-case scenario” trade war ensues between the US and Canada, Ottawa won’t hesitate to take strong retaliatory measures.
