Canada said on Tuesday it was considering a potential surtax on Chinese critical mineral products, batteries and parts, solar products, and semiconductors.
Canada announced last month it would impose a 100% tariff on imports of Chinese electric vehicles and announced a 25% tariff on steel and aluminum from China.
The finance ministry said in a statement it was launching a 30-day public consultation period on the potential surtax. It ran a similar exercise before the first tariff announcement.
