Canada will not impose retaliatory tariffs on most U.S. food items and other essentials, as well as on components critical to preventing job losses in key economic sectors, according to comments from two federal trade advisers reported by the Globe and Mail. David MacNaughton and Hassan Yussuff, members of Prime Minister Mark Carney's U.S. trade advisory panel, made these statements prior to the announcement of new tariffs by U.S. President Donald Trump.
