Government is reviewing and stopping immediately, where possible, buying from the U.S. New markets will be identified for NL products in light of what Furey says is “the U.S. President’s illegal actions against us.”
Premier Andrew Furey has issued a statement following Tariffs Tuesday, as the U.S. Trump administration has put tariffs on Canadian goods. Furey says “Newfoundland and Labrador has had a long, meaningful relationship with the United States: From our longstanding ties through the fishery, to the modern technology industry, from hosting President Roosevelt and Prime Minister Churchill in Placentia Bay during the heights of the Second World War to declare the Atlantic Charter, to supporting our neighbours during the tragedy of 9/11.”
The U.S. is Canada’s - and Newfoundland and Labrador’s - biggest trading partner. Furey says, “we will not stand by while this relationship is unlawfully and unjustly harmed.”
U.S. products are being removed from Newfoundland and Labrador Liquor Corporation shelves, and government is reviewing and stopping immediately, where possible, buying from the U.S. New markets will be identified for NL products in light of what Furey says is “the U.S. President’s illegal actions against us.” He says, “Our identity, our values and our sovereignty will give us the strength to stand against any bully. We remain the true north strong and free.”
