00:00On August 22nd, the United States of America imposed tariffs on 50% on approximately $28 billion in Canadian goods.
00:11Those tariffs will have real consequences for Canadian workers, businesses, and communities across our nation.
00:21Canada must respond, and today we are, in a proportionate, targeted, and strategic way.
00:30Today, I'm announcing that Canada will match the United States tariffs dollar for dollar, rate for rate.
00:38Effective September 8th, Canada will impose counter tariffs of up to 15%, 25%, or 50% on $27.6 billion
00:49in imports from the United States of America.
00:52For each product, our tariff would match the American tariff on the same type of Canadian goods.
