On this special episode of the Hub Roundtable, publisher Rudyard Griffiths and editor-at-large Sean Speer discuss President-elect Donald Trump's surprising announcement that his administration will impose 25 percent tariffs on all Canadian imports, including the extent to which mainstream Canadian commentators may be misreading Trump's real motivation--namely, to offset the fiscal cost of his tax policies and return production back to the United States.
