US EditionEby says B.C. won’t run anti-tariff ads alone as it had planned
B.C. Premier David Eby halted the ad campaign to align with federal trade efforts after U.S. tariffs reached 45.16%, aiming for coordinated communication with the U.S. government.
- On Nov. 3, 2025, British Columbia Premier David Eby said the province will not run anti-tariff ads for the American public on its own, The Canadian Press reported.

- Tariff and duty changes leave producers facing U.S. Department of Commerce levies of 35.16 per cent, some at 57.59 per cent, while Ottawa announced a $1.2-billion support package including $700-million in loan guarantees.
