Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre says his government would push for early renegotiations of the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA), and for Canada and the United States to pause tariffs on one another during the process.
“We should set a firm date to finalize a new deal, and I will propose that both countries pause tariffs while we hammer out that deal,“ Poilievre said during a campaign event in Toronto on April 2. ”Keeping destructive tariffs in place kills jobs on both sides of the border and serves no purpose at all.”
