Your daily horoscope: May 9, 2025

Canada to Announce Response to U.S. Steel and Aluminum Tariffs

The Canadian government is set to unveil its response to the United States' recent imposition of 25% tariffs on steel and aluminum imports. Finance Minister Dominic LeBlanc, Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly, and Industry Minister François-Philippe Champagne will address the nation in a press conference on Parliament Hill this morning.

The tariffs, which came into effect at midnight, mark a significant escalation in trade tensions between the two countries. The U.S. administration, under President Donald Trump, has justified the move as part of its broader strategy to realign global trade. In retaliation, Canada has already imposed counter-tariffs on $30 billion worth of U.S. goods and is expected to announce further measures to protect Canadian industries and workers.

The response is anticipated to focus on minimizing the impact on Canadian businesses while ensuring a strong message is sent to the U.S. about the importance of fair trade practices. The announcement comes amid ongoing discussions between Canadian and U.S. officials, with Ontario Premier Doug Ford scheduled to meet with U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick later this week.
