Mark Carney, speaking to the press from Parliament Hill, about measures to protect Canadian steel and aluminium industries. Donald Trump has escalated the ridiculous and illegal tariffs to be placed on Canadian steel products. One of the issues is, is that most of the North American aluminium mines exist in Canadian territories. So, Donald Trump claims that he doesn’t need aluminium from Canada, that America has its aluminium. Well, that’s not exactly true. He does need Canadian aluminium steel products, so Mr. Carney is announcing some measures to protect those products, to protect those industries from the tariffs and help keep all of those, all of those workers with jobs, and help keep them, keep the industry moving smoothly. Okay, so Mr. Carney is also joined by the ministers of finance and the Minister of Industry as well as the Minister of Intergovernmental Affairs, as he makes his announcement about protecting the steel and aluminium for Canada. This is also coming just a couple days after the end of the G7 summit in Alberta, if we also remember correctly, when there were some announcements about Iran and Israel and Mr. Trump left the talks early before think Mr. Carney and him could have some serious considerations about what it is they’re going to talk about to find a really good financial path and trade deal for both the United States and Canada. Mr. Carney also said in an interview at the end of the G7 summit that there was an active and valid trade deal between the US and Canada with the USMCA.
