Trump tariffs: Moe says ‘dollar-for dollar’ approach from Canada risks ‘escalating entire conversation’

Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe spoke Wednesday about the tariff threat from U.S. President Donald Trump, saying that in his view “broad-based counter tariffs” were “escalating the entire conversation around tariffs.” Moe added that the province is also actively working to make sure an export tariff on Saskatchewan products could not be applied. Moe says his government is supportive of targeted tariffs and he wants his government and business leaders to engage with contacts they may have within the Trump administration.
