@cbcmanitoba: Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew says the province of Manitoba 100 per cent supports the Canadian government's decision to back out of trade negotiations with the U.S. Prime Minister Mark Carney told his negotiators to walk away from the table after the Trump administration introduced late unacceptable demands on culture, autos and sovereignty that, in combination with their overall approach to talks, revealed the U.S. was not interested in a "true economic partnership" with Canada. The federal Liberal government estimates the tariffs will impact about $27 billion worth of Canadian goods and put about 56,000 jobs at stake. Carney said he's concerned about how the failure to secure a deal with Trump will impact ordinary people and promised to do whatever is required to help support businesses harmed by the tariffs. "We'll be releasing details of this early next week — alongside our tariff actions — to support these businesses, and we will support these businesses for as long as it takes; in other words, beyond the life of this administration," he said. #mb #winnipeg #usa #canada #tariffs
