Nearly seven in 10 (69%) said they wanted Ottawa “to be tough negotiators and use all points of leverage,” according to KPMG’s National Business Outlook and Trade Survey, conducted before the latest round of tariffs were proposed. Two-thirds (66%) of business leaders said they’ve adjusted prices as a result of tariffs. One-third of KPMG survey respondents said they planned to sell into new markets in the next one to three years. Business leaders listed the European Union, U.K. and Mexico as the top three non-U.S. markets in which they’ve boosted exports in the last year. “Canadian businesses are taking trade diversification seriously,” said Ali Jaffery, partner and chief economist with KPMG Canada, in the release.
