Prime Minister Mark Carney said Canada is weighing all options for possible retaliation if it doesn’t reach a deal with the US to avert 50% tariffs next month.
“Everything’s on the table if there’s no agreement, depending on the outcome of the negotiations,” he told reporters in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island on Thursday.
This week, US President Donald Trump’s administration used a law that’s been on the books since the Great Depression to threaten 50% tariffs on a variety of Canadian products, including electrical equipment, packaging, hockey gear and beer. The duties, which would affect about 5% of Canadian goods exports to the US, are set to come into effect as soon as Aug. 19.
Carney said representatives of both governments are now having discussions that encompass all current tariffs and trade measures.
The prime minister removed many counter-tariffs on the US last September, though some remain on steel and autos. Canadian provinces have also pulled US liquor from government-run store shelves, one of the chief irritants cited in Trump’s tariff order earlier this week.
Asked whether Trump’s tariff threat is a meaningful opportunity to reach a deal with the US or just a pressure tactic, Carney replied: “It’s both.”

Hopefully that includes supply management. But I’m learning with Carney he just says things that he thinks poll well with voters.
He rarely means anything he says.
Very interestingly, Carney implied at the end of one of his answers that they have turned down deals because they have had inadequate assurance that Trump would stick to his word on it.
It seems to me like they’re probably going to batten down the hatches and just deal with the tariffs until they have a reasonable negotiator to work with
Knee jerk reacting when the threat was made by Trump would’ve been stupid – however, this should have been plainly said earlier.
There’s nothing to retaliate right now as the 50% rate hasn’t taken effect. However, if it does get implemented, I would expect a dollar for dollar response.
Despite all of this, we remain locked in a hypothetical until the 50% rate is either implemented or TACO’d.
They made a deal on the Gordie Howe bridge(when there was already an existing deal) and less than a week later Trump slapped 50% tariffs on Canada. You can’t bargain in good faith with the current administration.
According to the CBC, this was a secret meeting where they were required to leave their phones at the door. Both Carney and Lantz looked rattled.
It leave me wondering exactly where things are headed.
There is no point in making a deal with the Americans. They cannot keep their word, and it’s their own population they’re starving with these tariffs anyways. The resources are still Canadian, and they’ll just be sold to other people.
He voiced this kind of rhetoric before. During the election.
Then he rolled back those tariffs quietly.
It’s quite clear by now, especially with how lied about the Gordie How bridge deal, he doesn’t know how to deal with Trump.
He’s going to keep conceding and give what Trump wants.
He’s definitely not elbows up as he promised.
Edit: Downvote facts, shouldn’t be surprised.
Tariff the power we send them at 50% they have said time and time again they don’t need us… Okay 👍 make your own power then.
Canada should pull out of the Free trade agreement. We can’t trust the Trump administration to uphold any of their negotiated policies and it’s highly likely it won’t change with another American government.
Anyone with an ounce of sense looking at America under Trump can tell the only thing that scares him off a position is spiking gas prices.
I don’t want Joe Q Oilpatch in Alberta to suffer, nor do I want the struggling single mother in America to be forced into choosing gas to get to work or food for her kids, but until our government makes clear we will hurt the American people enough to nuke the GOP’s midterm prospects, they will continue bullying us like this.
They will believe, based on how we’ve conducted ourselves, that we’re not gonna retaliate in a meaningful way. They will clock Mark Carney as a pussy. They will be right to do so.
The only effective way to fight these tariffs is with 100% of any countervailing tariffs applied to oil exports. The rest is politics.
I think Carney’s been spending way too much time with Doug. If Carney starts talking about 600 LBS gorillas and sticking fireworks up people’s ass then I would suggest he needs time away from Doug.
Schedule effectively ending/suspending the recognition of their intellectual property such as patents and copyright as soon as the tariffs hit us. Section 19 of our Patent Act should allow us to do this legally to a serious extent, which is more than I can say for Trump’s respect for the rule of law.
