Not directly Canadian news, but given Saturday’s events, it’s relevant:

Mexico has been preparing possible retaliatory tariffs on imports from the U.S., ranging from 5% to 20%, on pork, cheese, fresh produce, manufactured steel and aluminum, according to sources familiar with the matter. The auto industry would initially be exempt, they said.

      Yeah. I’m not clear what the tariffs are on. But I guess we’ll find out.

    Sounds like Mexico is also going the targeted retaliation route.

    I expect coordinating the reaponses for maximum impact was a big part of the extended discussion Trudeau was having with the Mexican president that delayed the start of his announcement.
