U.S. can't have Canadian minerals while imposing steep tariffs: Eby

British Columbia Premier David Eby called the latest round of U.S. tariff threats 'inexplicable' following a mining roundtable held by the U.S. ambassador, seeking to invest in Canadian mines to secure minerals and metals. 'We can't have a country on one hand attacking a group of families and workers, while hoping to have access to the resources in Canada that the rest of the world wants,' Eby told reporters at the premiers' summer meeting in Charlottetown.
