: Wise Law BlogCanada's Mayors Respond to "Buy American" Plan
Canada's mayors have announced their own plan for retailiation against U.S. "buy-American" mandates.
In response to the 'Buy American' provisions of the U.S. stimulus package, Canada's mayors narrowly passed a resolution Saturday that could potentially block U.S. companies from bidding on city contracts.
The resolution was passed at the Federation of Canadian Municipalities conference in Whistler, B.C., by a vote of 189-175.
The resolution says the federation should support cities that adopt policies that allow them to buy only from companies whose home countries do not impose trade restrictions against Canadian goods.
