WASHINGTON -- Prime Minister Mark Carney says U.S. President Donald Trump's tariff regime will "fundamentally change the global trading system."

Carney, who is meeting with his cabinet committee on Canada-U.S. relations in Ottawa, says Canada will fight tariffs with countermeasures after the country was excluded from new reciprocal tariffs announced by Trump today.

Canada is still affected by some tariffs, including on auto, steel and aluminum exports to the U.S.

More to come.
