Ottawa's Antidote to U.S. Surcharge Ready in 10 days
Description
Ottawa, Ontario
The Employment Support Act was being debated in House of Commons for a second time. Its purpose was to counteract a newly imposed 10% US “import surcharge.” It would see the Canadian government covering 2/3 of this cost on behalf of Canadian businesses. $80 million was said to be the proposed amount to be set-aside for this purpose.
