Ottawa must ensure the Trump administration understands how inter-related energy markets are in the US and Canada, a Canadian government minister said on Thursday, following President-elect Donald Trump's threat to impose a 25% tariff on imports from the country.
"We have some work to do to make sure we are effectively articulating the way in which tariffs would be counterproductive and that's not just true of oil," Natural Resources Minister Jonathan Wilkinson said, adding Americans also benefited from Canadian uranium and hydro exports.
