TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau reiterated on Tuesday, January 21, 2025, that his government is ready to respond to all scenarios if U.S. President Donald Trump imposes tariffs on Canada.
Asked about an uncertain timeline on possible tariffs, Trudeau said Trump is a skilled negotiator who likes to keep his negotiating partners a bit off-balance.
"Donald Trump's approach does bring in uncertainty," Trudeau said, adding that he speaks "regularly" with Trump.
"As regards next formal interactions, stay tuned."
Trudeau said Trump's promised prosperity for America will require Canadian resources to fuel it.
"Canada provides many of the necessary inputs the American economy is going to need in order to grow and boom."
Trump is expected to sign more executive orders on his second day in office. On Monday, he suggested across-the-board tariffs on Mexican and Canadian exports to the United States could take effect beginning in February.
Asked by reporters at the White House whether he would impose a universal tariff on all imports into the United States, Trump said, "We may. But we're not ready for that yet."
Asked about the Canada and Mexico tariffs, he said he was thinking about 25% because the two countries were allegedly allowing "vast numbers of people" and fentanyl into the U.S.
