Municipalities across Canada hold important leverage in a potential tariff war between our country and the United States. At the same time, tariffs on U.S. steel and rebar could increase costs for municipal projects and delay critical infrastructure initiatives. #CDNMuni are engines of growth and critical to these discussions. This is why we are working with our members from coast to coast to coast as part of Team Canada.

Les #munican disposent d’un levier important dans une éventuelle guerre tarifaire entre notre pays et les É.-U. En même temps, les tarifs sur l'acier et les barres d'armature provenant des É.-U. pourraient faire augmenter les coûts des projets municipaux et retarder des initiatives d'infrastructure essentielles. Les municipalités canadiennes sont des moteurs de croissance et jouent un rôle crucial dans ces discussions. C'est pourquoi nous travaillons avec nos membres d'un océan à l'autre au sein d’Équipe Canada.
