Danielle Smith's Call to Pause U.S. Tariffs Sparks Debate

 

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith has stirred controversy following her remarks during a recent interview with a U.S. media outlet. Smith revealed that she had urged the Trump administration to temporarily halt tariffs on Canadian goods until after Canada's federal election. She argued that the ongoing trade dispute was inadvertently boosting support for the Liberal Party, potentially impacting the Conservative Party's chances in the election.
