Boston — Speaking at the New England Canada Business Council Executive Energy Conference, Governor Maura Healey called on President Donald Trump to lift his tariffs on Canadian products that are increasing the cost of housing and energy in the United States. These include tariffs on lumber, steel, aluminum, copper, transformers, grid components, solar and wind components, and more. “This week, President Trump finally admitted what we all know – that his tariffs are raising costs,” said Governor Healey. “Now, he needs to focus on energy and housing. By ending his Canadian tariffs on lumber, steel and aluminum, he can undo some of the damage he has done. He should immediately lift these tariffs to lower the costs of housing and energy – the American people can’t afford for him to wait.” …Massachusetts and Canada exchange more than $16 billion in goods and services every year.
