A 25% tariff on Canadian imports takes effect Tuesday, and businesses across B.C. will be impacted.
We want to hear directly from you—how will this affect your business?

Premier David Eby has instructed all 29 Crown Agencies (BC Hydro, ICBC, LCB, etc) and all Ministires to buy Canadian Goods and Services First.
President Trump has essentially ripped up our Trade Agreement. This means we don’t need to abide by it either.
So what does this mean for BC?
