Alberta government to press ahead with response to U.S. tariffs, says Premier Danielle Smith [View all]
The Alberta government will move forward with its tariff response, Premier Danielle Smith announced late Friday, at the end of a tumultuous week in which the United States introduced steep tariffs then pulled back on them two days later.

"The Government of Alberta will therefore be moving forward with our tariff response until these questions have been adequately dealt with."
On Wednesday, Alberta announced it would stop buying American alcohol and halt contracting with U.S. companies in response to sweeping tariffs imposed the day before. The measures also included a halt on purchasing VLT machines from the U.S., an expense that amounts to about $100 million annually, Smith said Friday.

"The repeated pausing and unpausing of U.S. tariffs is causing great investment uncertainty and market volatility right across North America, and continues to confuse Canadians and Americans alike," Smith said in the statement.
