OTTAWA (Reuters) – Canada will advocate on behalf of its own economic interests after President Joe Biden vowed to use a “Buy American” policy for federal procurement in a bid to boost domestic manufacturing, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said on Tuesday.
“We will continue to be effective in advocating for Canada’s interests with this new administration,” Trudeau told reporters who asked whether Canada would seek exemptions for its own products.
