Group 1 - Canada is caught in a difficult position between the US and China, facing potential economic crisis and diplomatic turmoil [2] - The Canadian government has decided to impose a digital tax on US tech giants, which is seen as a direct challenge to US tech dominance [6][8] - This digital tax aims to fill tax revenue gaps and establish Canada’s position in international economic rules, but the government may have underestimated the US response [8] Group 2 - The digital tax could impose up to 3% on US tech companies operating in Canada, potentially costing them up to $2 billion [13] - The US response has been aggressive, with threats to freeze trade negotiations and impose tariffs on Canadian goods, particularly in the automotive and energy sectors [10][15] - Canada’s economic dependency on the US is significant, with nearly one-fifth of its economy reliant on exports to the US, especially in critical sectors like energy and automotive [10][16] Group 3 - The potential for a "301 investigation" by the US could lead to comprehensive trade sanctions against Canada, forcing the Canadian government to reconsider its strategy [16] - Alberta's oil industry is heavily reliant on the US market, and any tariffs could severely impact its economy, highlighting Canada's lack of independent energy transport infrastructure [18] - Ultimately, Canada may have to cancel the digital tax to reopen trade negotiations with the US and avoid economic disaster [18]
