I think this should be done on a case to case basis. If the states adds the 25% tariffs then yes we should counter

 @9YNBMP4from Alberta  answered…2mos2MO

Tariffs should only be used in the case of national security related items/industries or when foreign governments subsidize their exports or tariff our imports.

 @9XJDXXWfrom Nova Scotia  answered…2mos2MO

The money made from for global free trade instead of local labour/resources, goes to executives and large corporations which have lackluster effects on benefiting Canada. Increasing tariffs would hurt our economy because corporations would then offload the increase of manufacturing and resources to the consumer or the employee.

This is not an all question there are times when tariffs are necessary this is a case by case situation.

 @9WBTJ7Sfrom Ontario  answered…2mos2MO

Yes.It needs to be 100% tarrifs. Our country should become selfsustaining again and not rely on the global market.

 @9RQNPMRfrom Nova Scotia  answered…5mos5MO

Yes if we have the same product available here. Or better yet help the Canadian companies become competitive with the imports.

 @9RGCB9Pfrom Alberta  answered…5mos5MO

No, not on materials, but should on direct to consumer products and provide more subsidies for manufacturing and production of Canadian-made goods.

 @9GPTJ2Dfrom British Columbia  answered…1yr1Y

Yes, but it should occur in conjunction with the creation of a robust system that provides a balance between reducing the cost to businesses who must access items not available in the current domestic market AND incentivize consumers to prioritize purchasing products from domestic manufacturers
