Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe is asking why Ottawa has not yet outlined a response to China’s latest tariffs on Canada, saying Beijing’s actions disproportionately impact western provinces and arguing the federal government has responded more quickly to U.S. trade actions.

“Whether or not you agree with the federal govt’s response to US trade actions, there is no doubt they have taken action and reacted quickly, as they should,” Moe said in a March 11 social media post.
