*US Says Canada Should Follow Mexico On China Import Tariffs*
U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said on Friday that Canada should follow the path of Mexico which in an interesting move has proposed matching U.S. tariffs on China.
Top Mexican officials have met with members of Trump’s cabinet this week for trade talks ahead of a March 4 deadline, when U.S. President Donald Trump’s proposed tariffs on Mexican and Canadian imports are set to get into effect alongside an additional 10% duty on Chinese imports.
“I think it would be a nice gesture if the Canadians did it also so in a way we could have fortress North America from the flood of Chinese imports that’s coming out of the most unbalanced economy in the history of modern times,” Bessent said in an interview with Bloomberg TV.
