Canada will not eliminate the tariffs imposed on Tuesday in the United States until the administration of President Donald Trump completely cancels his encumbrances, the Canadian Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, said Thursday.
Trudeau declared at a press conference that Canada “will not suspend its tariffs simply because the Americans made a change yesterday.”
On Wednesday, the US government announced that it suspended for a month to the 25% tariff automobile sector that imposed trade with Canada and Mexico on Tuesday.
The Canadian leader insisted that Canada are trying to eliminate all tariffs and that, while they are in force, the Canadian government will concentrate on minimizing its impact on Canadian economy and citizenship.

But he warned: “You can confirm that in the foreseeable future we will continue in a commercial war launched by the United States. Canadians must continue buying Canadian products and supporting each other. ”
“Canada will remain firm and without a doubt, while these tariffs are in force, we will respond with forcefulness,” he continued.
The Canadian Prime Minister also recognized that the telephone conversation that held 50 minutes yesterday with Trump was “animated” but refused to confirm information filtered to some media in the US that the two leaders used bad words.
“When I talk to Donald on the phone, let’s say it’s always interesting and this was, I suppose, animated. But also constructive, ”he said to add next that he did not want to go into details except that” there were some parts of the conversation in which different approaches and tones were used. “
