John Manley appeared on CBC Morning Live to discuss President Trump's decision to impose 35 percent tariffs on certain Canadian goods. He noted that while the move adds uncertainty and puts pressure on investment, Canadians should remain steady as negotiations unfold.
John emphasized the importance of a measured response, suggesting that Canada allow economic pressure to mount on the US side. He pointed to Prime Minister Mark Carney's platform of standing firm against Trump and strengthening the Canadian economy independently, an effort that will take time but is essential for long-term resilience.
