Over this past weekend, the Trump Administration followed through on a campaign promise to issue tariffs on key trade partners of the US. Canada, Mexico and China all found themselves in the new administration's crosshairs.
In this episode, Paul discusses some of the reasons why these tariffs are going to affect both the fossil AND clean energy industries. And why Canada and Mexico quickly reached a negotiated bargain with the US while China looks to be digging in for a prolonged trade war.
