British Columbia's finance minister has indicated that the province may impose retaliatory tariffs on Republican-held states in the US, in response to the looming threat of US tariffs on Canadian goods. With President Donald Trump hinting at a February start date, BC is gearing up to defend its economy. The move could have significant implications for trade relations between the two nations, with potential consequences for international trade and commerce. Key sectors such as forestry and manufacturing may be impacted, sparking concerns about economic stability and growth. As tensions escalate, BC remains committed to protecting its interests.
