This slogan was not simply an advertising promise but a political economic and diplomatic strategy canada quickly expanded Mark Carney’s Transformation Strategy 4:30 agreements with global players such as the European Union Japan Australia and India foreign investors realized that it made more sense to open a campus set up an R&D lab or build a factory in Canada rather than face uncertainty in the US that's why FDI inflows to Canada increased by 9% while investment in the US fell by 28% over the same period in Canada billions of dollars of new resources have even started flowing into battery and critical minerals projects 5:01 in the US the agricultural sector in particular has been squeezed citrus growers in Florida bourbon producers in Kentucky all felt the impact of retaliatory tariffs or difficulties accessing the Canadian market as extraordinary tax hikes hit key sectors Export Surge in Canada vs. Stagnation in the US 5:16 of the economy the business community began to ask 'Why is Washington acting so aggressively?' In the political arena some political advisers made veiled jokes such as 'When Canada becomes our 51st state we won't have to worry about taxes.' But this did not make Canadian officials or global investors laugh on the contrary Canada has started to reap the rewards of presenting itself as a safe stable and rules-based market from Europe to Asia with the idea that if America builds walls let's build bridges three in the midst of all this a giant $214 billion trade agreement has dominated the agenda this multis sectoral package which Canada has signed 6:00 with new partners in Asia and Latin America is weakening the United States's traditional partnerships experts are calling it the biggest policy failure of the decade because the US is not only penalizing Global Impact: What the Trade Shift Means for Supply Chains 6:15 foreign producers but also forcing domestic buyers to look for alternatives president Trump's tariff campaign which has continued to escalate in the following days has hit the automobile and energy sectors particularly hard the North American Automotive Manufacturers Association announced that the impact of the tariffs on vehicle prices has begun to fall on the backs of both consumers and manufacturers for US consumers the announcement fueled concerns at a time when grocery bills and gasoline prices are also rising not only large corporations but also small businesses are complaining about the rising cost of doing business some are turning to markets outside the US or looking for ways to shift production from Canada to Mexico but it is important to remember that similar tax tensions exist in 7:01 Mexico these trade tensions are not limited to the USC relationship while the US is trying to curb imports by imposing tariffs countries like Canada which pursue softer policies are also expanding their share while the Canadian economy continued to grow by 2.6% export growth on the US side remained as low as 1% the gap is wide ranging from agricultural products to industrial goods from automotive parts to pharmaceuticals at a time of US Winners, Losers, and What’s Next in North American Trade 7:31 protectionism Canada's appeal to European producers coincides with its message that our market and our agreements are open to everyone this message has led to a series of economic cooperation agreements these include agreements on critical minerals green energy artificial intelligence and advanced manufacturing in fact Canada's historically US dependent economy is undergoing a transformation of its own and Washington's tough stance has accelerated this transformation time will tell whether this is a case of Canada winning the US losing or whether 8:02 this process will lead to a renewal of both sides in the long run some analysts emphasize that these steps taken by the US to protect its domestic market will boost some domestic sectors in the short term but in the medium and long-term the cost of losing important partners will be heavier global companies that have deepened their trade networks over the last decade do not like it when a country suddenly starts building walls this is because issues such as supply Final Thoughts & Viewer Engagement 8:30 chains joint R&D projects and capital flows need stability and predictability this is where Canada's emphasis on predictability is critical when Trump woke up one morning and raised the steel tariff from 25% to 50% or imposed a 25% tariff on automobiles it upset the strategic planning of companies it's no wonder that even Canada is increasingly turning away from the US the US is self-destructive but we can't stand by 9:00 and let it bring us down say representatives of major corporations in Ottawa according to the World Bank's 2024 report Canada is increasing its integration into global trade networks while the US wants to return to a more protected model the question arises when the trade war escalates how will it affect everything from consumer prices to the industrial supply chain time will tell but early indications are that Canadian producers are aggressively expanding exports to Asia and Europe while partially protecting their share of the US market so what do you think about this let us know what you think in the comments please don't forget to subscribe to our channel and turn on notifications to be informed about new videos PPR Mundial
