British Columbia Premier David Eby says his government will pause its response to threatened American tariffs after a 30-day reprieve was negotiated today between Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and U.S. President Donald Trump.

Eby says it doesn't mean the province will abandon its plan, and it will be prepared for a possible social media post from Trump saying the tariffs are back on.

More coming.
