President Donald Trump's steel tariff issue echoed in Canada's House of Commons today. The Conservatives surrounded Prime Minister Mark Carney on it. After Opposition Leader Andrew Scheer, the party's Ontario MP Liane Rudd challenged the Liberals to present a budget.
He said that the government should now show transparency and present a budget so that Canadians can know how much, if any, the government has collected from the alleged retaliatory tariffs.
Retaliating on this, Finance Minister Francois-Philippe Champagne said that instead of showing Canada down, this is a time to show solidarity and this is a matter of the country.
It is noteworthy that the Conservatives have alleged that the Liberals had talked about raising $20 billion from retaliatory tariffs against the US during the election, for which the party is now seeking an answer.
