Canadian Steel and Aluminum are the latest goods being hit by tariffs, The impact of these tariffs compared to 7 years ago, & Apple’s new IPhone

WELCOME TO THE MWSA PODCAST FOR TUESDAY, FEB. 11th We begin with our weekly conversation with Mercedes Stephenson – Global News Ottawa Bureau Chief – and Host of the West Block. This time out, we get clarification on the latest ‘Tariff’ announcement earlier this week by President Donald Trump – focusing on Steel and Aluminum – and what’s being done to ‘counter’ the tariffs, on our side of the border. Next – we continue the conversation surrounding Steel and Aluminum tariffs. We catch up with Carlo Dade – Director of Trade and Trade Infrastructure with the “Canada West Foundation” – for his views on just how much of an impact the taxation would have on these industries – and our overall economy. And finally – ahead of a ‘surprise’ announcement from Apple next week, we speak with The Gadget Guy Mike Yawney to ‘speculate’ what may be coming down from the ‘tech giant’ – and according to Mike – it may just be a revamp of the ‘budget friendly’ – iPhone SE.
