Trump doesn’t seem to understand that you can’t just uproot an entire industry and relocate it someplace else overnight. So really, the only choice aluminum-dependent industries have short-term is to pay the damn tariff and keep on importing. Ironically, Canada itself has to pay the tariff too because most canning plants are in the US, and we’re no more able to ramp up canning here than the US can ramp up aluminum refining. Changes like that take significant time and financial investment.
I don’t remember where but i’ve read a interview with a ceo saying it will take them at least 4 years to make the change they need to stop using canadian aluminum
