Canadian Prime Minister Justice Trudeau is now seen following the lead of former US President Donald Trump. During his term, former US President Donald Trump had imposed various types of tariffs on China and now Canadian Prime Minister Judge Trudeau has also announced that he will impose tariffs of up to 25% on two products from China.
The two things that Trudeau has announced he will impose a 25 per cent tariff on are steel and aluminum. Justin Trudeau says China is selling these metals at such cheap prices around the world that Canada is suffering huge losses and is therefore imposing a 25 per cent tariff on steel and aluminum from China.
“Canadian workers are being harmed”
Trudeau posted on the social media platform Canadian workers are being harmed due to China’s unfair trade practices and that is why we are taking action. Starting today, a 25% tariff on imports of Chinese-made steel and aluminum was implemented in Canada.
Trump started trade war with China
Let us tell you that during Donald Trump’s term, a trade war broke out between the United States and China. Not only this, Trump had also initiated the process of imposing a separate 10 percent tax on goods worth $200 billion from China. The products for which Trump had taken this step included approximately 6,000 products.
If Trump wins, clashes could break out again
We tell you that Trump has once again made China a central issue in his campaign for the presidential elections that will be held in the United States in a few days. Due to Trump’s statements, many people have expressed fear that if he becomes president of the United States again, a trade war between China and the United States could break out again.
