Washington, D.C. — In response to reporting that the Canadian government is rescinding a tax aimed at large tech corporations in the face of trade pressure from U.S. President Donald Trump, Arthur Stamoulis, executive director of the Trade Justice Education Fund, released the following statement:
“Leveraging tariff threats to help Big Tech billionaires get new tax cuts is not the change that working people need.
“Working Americans and people the world over need policies that promote good-paying jobs, expanded manufacturing and supply chain resilience — not more giveaways to corporate elites. Today’s news is just another example of the rigged deal making that has so many Americans livid about U.S. trade priorities.”
