Why this story? One of CBC News's most watched videos since yesterday, with 216,619 views.

Dem. says Congress will quickly put an end to tariffs on Canada

"We're going to put an end to these tariffs," Jamie Raskin tells CBC News, putting Canadian trade on Democrats' post-election agenda.

The Maryland representative points to Congress's constitutional authority over taxes, tariffs and commerce. He says Democrats want to make clear that they oppose Donald Trump's tariffs on Canada and support free and fair trade with their northern neighbor.

CBC presents the interview following Democratic victories in both the House and Senate. Raskin describes work extending through the end of the year, then offers a hoped-for timetable: "I would hope it's something that we move very quickly within the first 100 days."

That is a commitment to pursue action, rather than an announcement that the tariffs have been removed. The short clip does not set out a legislative mechanism.

The interview drew roughly 220,000 views since yesterday. Raskin also makes an electoral argument: he links Republican losses in northern communities to their close commercial, social and family ties with Canada.
