The ongoing uncertainty surrounding Canada–U.S. trade is creating real challenges for businesses — and Burlington is no exception.
For many Burlington companies, particularly those connected to manufacturing, steel, automotive, advanced manufacturing and cross-border supply chains, changing tariffs and trade conditions can have an immediate impact on costs, contracts, pricing, staffing and future investment decisions.
Burlington has an incredibly strong and resilient business community, but businesses shouldn’t have to navigate these challenges on their own.
The Burlington Chamber of Commerce continues to work with the Ontario Chamber of Commerce and Canadian Chamber of Commerce, as well as all levels of government, to ensure the voice of Burlington business is heard.
We also encourage everyone in our community: when you have a choice, support local and buy Canadian. Supporting Burlington businesses helps protect local jobs, strengthens our economy and keeps investment in our community.
For businesses looking for information and support, we’ve brought resources together in one place.
👉 Visit https://www.burlingtonchamber.com/tariff-trade-hub/ for tariff and trade resources from the Ontario Chamber of Commerce, Canadian Chamber of Commerce, and information on local programs and resources available through Discover Burlington.
And we want to hear from you.
If tariffs or Canada–U.S. trade uncertainty are affecting your costs, supply chain, employees, customers, contracts or investment decisions, please connect with the Burlington Chamber. The experiences of Burlington businesses directly inform our advocacy with government.
We are the voice of business in Burlington — and we will continue advocating for a strong, competitive and resilient Burlington economy.
