Canada changes tone in bid to stave off Trump tariffs.

"Canada is a safe, secure and reliable partner in an uncertain world," Trudeau said this week.

Canada has been preparing a retaliatory response for weeks, and was ready for a potentially devastating trade war to be launched as soon as President Donald Trump took office.
