The National Post reports in its Tuesday, Oct. 7, edition that Canadian sectors, such as steel and aluminum, are still feeling the brunt of tariffs which remain subject to a 50-per-cent levy under Section 232 of the U.S. Trade Expansion Act, as well as softwood lumber, which the Trump administration recently hit with a new 10-per cent-tariff. The Post's Stephanie Taylor writes that the Carney government has focused on securing some sectoral reprieve. With no signs of a tariff deal, Prime Minister Mark Carney is facing increasing pressure from Opposition Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre, who posted a letter he sent to the PM, calling on him to keep the promise he made to Canadians during the federal election that he would secure a deal with President Donald Trump. Mr. Poilievre wrote: "You promised to 'negotiate a win' and now U.S. tariffs on Canada are twice as high as when you were elected, saying you would get rid of them. You promised 'elbows up,' but then caved on dollar-for-dollar counter-tariffs, the Digital Services Tax and more while winning nothing in return for Canada."
