No one said anything about a trade war with Canada. China on the other hand... the us does import a fair bit of steel from Canada, but look at the actual totals from China-they send a lot to South Korea and other places in a very raw state that is refined and sent to the states. Retaliatory tarrifs from China would likely fall on us agricultural goods, that won’t help Donny’s base...
Canadian lumber doesn’t hurt a thing, there is already a huge tarrif on Canadian softwood lumber ( which in my opinion is BS-look up what they claim the basis is). Cheap lumber (and low construction costs) creates far more jobs across a multitude of industries than a few loggers. Cheap steel does the same thing.
China isn’t going to do chit! Steel isn’t where it’s at for them and they’re not gonna risk our market for ear buds, smartphones etc... by any real retaliation! They may talk about it but that’ll be about it.
