President-elect Donald Trump announced on Monday that he would impose a 25% tariff on Mexico and Canada .

Canadian politicians and energy experts are warning the hefty tariff would have dire consequences for the economy of America 's northern neighbour.

US fuel makers have urged Trump to rule out oil and gas from any proposed levies given that Americans rely heavily on imported Canadian crude.

She and other premiers, Smith said, have asked Trudeau to come up with a comprehensive border security plan. Smith also said the province is exploring the option of creating specialised sheriff units to patrol its own shared border with the US state of Montana . No matter the approach, Mr McConaghy said he hopes there is an urgency among Canadian officials to get the risk of tariffs “off the table as soon as possible”..
