Canada PM Carney Vows to Backstop Economy as U.S. Trade Row Escalates

Canada's Prime Minister Carney has pledged to support the economy amid escalating trade tensions with the U.S., emphasizing the necessity of retaliatory tariffs on about $20 billion in U.S. goods to shield domestic sectors and workers. This move comes as part of a broader strategy to counteract potential economic fallout from the trade row. The decision underscores the government's commitment to safeguarding its economic interests and ensuring stability for its workforce during a time of international trade conflict.
