Motion sickness in the Canadian economy as the U.S. takes another turn on tariffs. Automakers have a one-month exemption from the 25 per cent tariffs imposed yesterday. Washington says it’s to give them time to move more investment out of Canada and into the U.S. And in U.S. border towns, businesses are facing the possibility of a drop off in revenue – their customers, and many of their supplies, come from Canada.
