DC visit, Canadian leaders face Trump’s Tariff Hawks

Another week and annex suggestions from another tariff threats and President Trump.

All steel and aluminum imports began with an announcement of a policy that applies a 25 percent tariff. In the case of Canada, these tariffs will be collected at the beginning of the majority of Canada in a 30-day holding period at the beginning of 25 percent of the tariffs. Mr. Trump is 50 percent proportion to steel and aluminum rate after both of them.

Next, he said that the presidential counselors, trade barriers and other economic approaches to the new tariffs taking into account other economic approaches of US trade partners unfairly. This is an approach that covers only the tariffs placed in US goods in Canada, but in Canada, which includes the tariffs for imported products imported as GST; Any subsidy in industry; and their exchange rates.

“Canada was very bad in trade, but now he will have to pay for Canada,” he said while declaring Mr. Trump. “Canada will be a very interesting situation because you know, we just don’t need their products.”

Among the things that can be targeted, a truth of the White House, Last year, Google, Amazon and Netflix began to appeal to the Canadian income of major technological companies. Again, any tariff caused by this study will be added to something other than Mr. Trump.

A small number of business leaders began to talk to Tariff plans if Mr. Trump’s canada is not directly spoken to Canada.

Ford’s CEO Jim Farley, an industrial conference “25 percent on the border of the Mexico and Canada will hit a hole in the US industry we never saw.”

Speaking about the plan of revitalizing the American production of Mr. Trump through tariffs, he said, “It is a lot of expenses and many chaos we have done so far.”

Mr. Farley’s message reflects what Canadian officials will listen to Washington. This week, 13 provinces and territorial leaders visited the US capital to report this argument and the trade economy between our countries on the mutual nature of trade.

Although 11 of the premiers held a last minute meeting in the White House, this was Mr. Trump’s Assistant Secretary of Law and President of the President.

“I do not think that the premiers met with many important people,” said Gary Mar, the President of the Western Foundation and the CEO of the Public Policy in Calgary, told me.

Mr. Mar Alberta was the official representative in Washington since 2007. He said that Canada in the United States has changed significantly since then.

“I think our relations with the United States have changed forever,” Mr. Mar. “Donald Trump is not the reason. It is a symbol. People who went to war with the United States – this generation. A success culture in the United States was replaced by complaining culture.”

Cultural turns are set aside, hoping to change the minds of Canadian politicians in Washington, Mr. Trump can handle the evidence that many people approached.

Many, most, Mr. Trump’s tariff measures, Robert E. Lighthizer, the US trade office was followed by the first Trump administration.

Mr. Lighthizer, not to put softly, I think the US is blessed in the last four decades.

“The global trading system has failed our country, Mr. Lightizer, who is guided by the United States during Renegotia, wrote in a guest for the Opinion of the New York Times. “FREE trading does not work because it has not been reduced. Failed because there is no free trade.”

(Opinion: Want to trade free? Can I introduce you to the tariff?(

Mr. Lighthizer, although this essay was discussed with trade with Canada, said, “No trade is free: a variable course, helping American employees and help.”

“In the reality of Canada, it is quite parochial – and sometimes quite protective – the country,” he said. “For many years, the Canadian Soviet Commissioner used a milk supply chain management program.”

Like Mr. Trump, Mr. Lighthizer offers a new global trading order that loves trade deficits and split in the world economy in two. In a group, the countries will generally receive each other’s lower tariffs. However, if one of the group’s members develop a trade surplus, others will increase tariffs against its exports until this surplus disappears. And the countries outside the group will receive high tariffs to countries outside the group – “Nondemocratic countries, as well as the fire-neighboring-neighboring-neighboring and aggressive industrial policy, it insists on using a great surplus,” he said.

One Mr. Lighthizer ProfileMy colleagues in Washington, as Elizabeth Williamson and Mother Swanson, economists, Canadian politicians, will only increase the prices of high tariffs and even increase the prices of Americans and even caused a recession. Lighthizer simply claims economists wrong. “
