Canada not optimistic about a Mexico-style tariff reprieve, says New York Times
Feb 3, 2025 8:37 AM

OTTAWA (Reuters) - Canada is not optimistic it can get the same kind of one-month reprieve from U.S. tariffs that was granted to Mexico, the New York Times cited a senior Canadian government official as saying on Monday.

President Donald Trump said he had spoken to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Monday and would speak to him again later in the day. He is vowing to slap 25% tariffs on virtually all Canadian imports starting on Tuesday and a 10% surcharge on oil imports.
