From DW News.

Trump is still threatening to slap huge taxes on foreign imports. And tensions over his tariff plans triggered a political drama in the Canadian capital, Ottawa, with the sudden resignation of Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland.
Freeland served as Justin Trudeau’s deputy prime minister, and the two had clashed in recent weeks over fiscal policy issues, including how to respond to the threat of higher tariffs by US President-elect Donald Trump.
Last week Freeland spoke out in favour of a tough Canadian response if Trump goes ahead with his tariff plans.
