our correspondent nomia iqbal is looking at reactions — beginning in canada.after donald trump launched a multi—billion dollar trade war with the us's biggest trading partner, canada outlined how it would hit back, with 25% tariffs of its own. like the american tariffs, our response will also be far—reaching and include everyday items such as american beer, wine and bourbon, fruits and fruitjuices, including orange juice. the us tariff is 25% on all products and 10% oil leaving toronto locals furious with president trump. i think it's a crazy idea and i'm surprised he is turning on canada like this. because we were always such good neighbours. but i also think it's going to hurt the us economy because here in ontario we make a lot of auto parts we sell to the us, they make cars. now the cars are going to be more expensive. people would understand it. on social media, mr trump said the us subsidised canada to the tune of hundreds of billions of dollars, repeating his claims they could escape tariffs mexico, too, has been hit with the tariffs of 25%. president t
