Canada is studying the imposition of export taxes on major commodities exported to the United States, including uranium, oil and potash, in the case that Trump fulfills the comprehensive tariff threat. Officials familiar with the internal discussions of Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau's government said that the export tax would be Canada's last resort. According to people familiar with the matter, retaliatory tariffs on goods made in the United States and export controls on some Canadian products are more likely to come first. However, these officials said that if Trump decides to launch a full-scale trade war, the commodity export tax is a practical option, which will push up the costs of American consumers, farmers and enterprises. They said that the Trudeau government may also propose to expand its export control power in the latest report on the country's financial and economic situation scheduled to be released on Monday.

Li Yujia, chief researcher of the Housing Policy Research Center of Guangdong Urban and Rural Planning Institute, said that risk prevention is the primary task at present. As two typical representatives of China's assets, the property market and the stock market are expressed together to stabilize the price and quantity. Li Yujia believes that the expression of "continuous push" put forward at this meeting is novel and meaningful. This means that the next step will continue to implement the logic of "launching incremental policies and implementing stock policies" to form a policy superposition and release effect. At the same time, the word "hard" also indicates that not only will new policies be introduced in the future, but the policy intensity will be further increased. Judging from the contents of the meeting, whether it is to stabilize the real estate market or expand domestic demand, it is no longer simply dependent on the investment of financial or monetary funds, but emphasizes the need to lay a good policy "combination boxing".
