What is the best way for Canada to retaliate against the US steel tariffs?

Counter-tariffs are a bad idea as all tariffs are a bad idea, and such retaliation will only further hurt both eceonomies. What is a better way to get back at the US and cause damage only to them?

    Since the US has almost no steel mills any longer, the best retaliation would be for the countries who make seel to not sell to the US,.

    I doubt the tariffs in question will be applied to Canada, because it's just too complicated for the auto industry. If the tariffs did apply to Canada, I guess it would be the Typhoon instead of the F-35 for the RCAF. Defence/aerospace always gets their attention in Washington.

    The Canadian steel industry is in more of a decline than the US. Like the US, most are shut down due to Chinese parterships. They can make the steel in China, inspect it in Canada or the US and skirt the rules. All North American steel foundry workers are cheering Trump.

    Edit: To answer your question, it would be Electricity exports to US cities.
