/R E P E A T -- MEDIA ADVISORY - Canada's Labour, Business, and Municipal Leaders Respond to Trump's Tariff Hike/ Français
OTTAWA, ON, June 3, 2025 /CNW/ - On Wednesday, June 4, three of Canada's foremost national leaders representing workers, businesses, and municipalities, will hold a joint press conference in response to U.S. President Donald Trump's decision to double tariffs on Canadian aluminum and steel. This reckless escalation is a direct attack on Canadian workers, businesses, and local economies. The impact threatens to devastate Canada's steel and aluminum industries, shut Canadian producers out of the U.S. market, and jeopardize thousands of good, unionized jobs across the country. Bea Bruske (Canadian Labour Congress), Candace Laing (Canadian Chamber of Commerce), and Carole Saab (Federation of Canadian Municipalities) will outline the urgent need for a coordinated federal response to defend Canadian jobs, businesses, and communities.

OTTAWA, ON, June 3, 2025 /CNW/ - The Federation of Canadian Municipalities, the Canadian Labour Congress, and the Canadian Chamber of Commerce will respond to the latest threat of doubling tariffs on Canadian aluminum and steel by the U.S. administration. The ongoing trade war and constant threat of tariffs continue to impact everyone, including Americans. At this crucial moment, Canada's municipal, workers and businesses are united in their fight to oppose these harmful tariffs. Amid this economic uncertainty, it's time to modernize how we work together as governments—starting with a new model that matches ambition with capacity. That's why FCM is calling for a National Prosperity Partnership: a coordinated plan to align infrastructure, housing, and investment with Canada's economic goals.
