Oh Canada, Watch The Mineral Threats

Following a Wednesday meeting with Canada’s premiers over the current U.S.-Canada tariff row, Canadian Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland appeared to threaten restrictions on exports of critical minerals to the United States: “Some premiers proactively identified products that their provinces produce and export to the United States and which the US relies on and which should be considered as part of the Canadian response. This included some critical minerals and metals.”
