What specific justifications did President Trump provide for implementing these tariffs, and what is the extent of US reliance on imported steel and aluminum?

Trump's justification centers on national security concerns stemming from excessive steel and aluminum imports, accusing China of flooding the market with cheap metal. Approximately 25 percent of US industrial steel and over 40 percent of aluminum are imported; the US primarily sources steel from Canada, Brazil, and Mexico, with Germany and China among the top ten importers of steel into the US. These tariffs represent a significant escalation in trade tensions.

How did energy policy disputes between Canada and the US contribute to the tariff escalation?

The US tariffs on steel and aluminum, while seemingly focused on trade disputes, are interconnected with energy policies and broader geopolitical relationships. Canada's electricity price increase and the US's counter-tariff threats highlight tensions between energy security and international trade agreements. The EU's counter-tariffs demonstrate a broader pattern of protectionist responses to trade disputes.
