Conservative Party leader Pierre Poilievre is expected to react to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s announcement on Saturday where he said that "Canada will be responding to the U.S. trade action with 25 per cent tariffs against a $155 billion worth of American goods.”

Trudeau said this will include immediate tariffs on $30 billion worth of goods as of Tuesday, followed by further tariffs on $125 billion worth of American products in 21 days’ time to “allow Canadian companies and supply chains to seek to find alternatives.”

Speaking to reporters, Trudeau said he has been reaching out to Trump since his inauguration but has not had the chance to speak to the American president yet.

Trudeau said Canada’s response “will be far reaching and include everyday items such as American beer, wine and bourbon, fruits and fruit juices, including orange juice, along with vegetables, perfume, clothing and shoes.”

U.S. President Donald Trump signed an executive order imposing tariffs on Canadian and Mexican goods as of Tuesday, he said in a statement on Saturday.
