Canadian industry experts, union leaders issue dire warnings about tariff effects

Several premiers are decrying U.S. President Donald Trump’s decision to impose punishing tariffs on virtually all Canadian goods and calling for a powerful retaliatory response from Ottawa and the country as a whole.

Newfoundland and Labrador Premier Andrew Furey said on Saturday that "we’re in a moment that is historic, an existential threat to the country. It’s not just an economic attack — I believe this to be an attack on Canadians, an attack on their values, on our sovereignty.

“It’s a moment where we need to stand strong and united in such an assault,” Furey told CBC News.
