Sutcliffe warns of 'historic challenges' in 2025, including Trump tariffs

The article from MSN discusses Ottawa Mayor Mark Sutcliffe's concerns about the potential economic challenges facing Ottawa in 2025, particularly due to the possibility of former U.S. President Donald Trump reintroducing tariffs if he wins the next U.S. election.

The mayor emphasized the need for Ottawa to prepare for such economic turbulence by diversifying its economic base and strengthening local industries to mitigate the effects of potential trade disruptions.
