Canada Hits Back: What Will It Cost Us?

Canada’s trade war with the United States just escalated, with Ottawa imposing billions in new retaliatory tariffs as Donald Trump spends the weekend firing off increasingly wild attacks against Prime Minister Carney and Canada. Supriya Dwivedi joins us (4:00) to break down what Canada’s strategy is, how much leverage we actually have, and where this increasingly ugly fight goes from here. Then, Marshall McAlister and Cary Williams from North Road Investment Counsel (58:15) get into the market and investment implications of the trade war and Alberta referendum. Feature interviews on Real Talk are presented by Mercedes-Benz Edmonton West. THIS EPISODE IS PRESENTED BY RapidEX FINANCIAL.
