In Washington, Goldy Hyder emphasizes the importance of Canadian resilience and proactive measures to navigate trade and economic challenges. He shares his perspective with multiple news outlets regarding U.S. President Trump’s threat to implement a 25 per cent tariff on Canadian goods.   

“[The U.S.] “will not reward you for being weak. They will take advantage of you. So don’t be weak. Strengthen your home base.””

“Let’s not waste this moment and allow ourselves to get back to what was.”

“The game is still very much on and this is not by any sense of the imagination the final whistle.” 

“So we must respond in kind when it comes tohe overall competitiveness of Canada, which includes on tax policy, on regulations, which is, frankly, the biggest issue I hear from my members, is we’re over-regulated.”
