魁北克萨格奈——二战期间，当纳粹飞机轰炸伦敦、美国急需大量制造飞机和弹药时，美国帮助将加拿大森林中这个偏远之地打造成铝生产巨头。
SAGUENAY, Quebec—When Nazi planes were blitzing London during World War II and the U.S. needed to build more aircraft and munitions in a hurry, it helped turn this remote place in the Canadian forest into an aluminum-production juggernaut.
数千名加拿大人在严寒条件下劳作，仅用18个月就建成了电解槽和为其供电的水电站。从那时起，萨格奈的铝厂便持续为美国工业供货。
Thousands of Canadians labored through frigid conditions to build smelting pots and a hydropower plant to fuel them—in just 18 months. Ever since then, Saguenay’s aluminum plants have supplied American industry.
如今，特朗普总统的贸易战将加拿大的铝冶炼厂视作敌人——而美国企业和消费者正为此买单。
Now, President Trump’s trade war has cast Canada’s aluminum smelters as the enemy—and U.S. businesses and consumers are paying a price.
在其首个任期内，特朗普曾豁免加拿大征收他对其他贸易伙伴加征的10%铝关税。重返白宫后，他取消了加拿大的豁免，并将铝关税税率提高至50%。
During his first term, Trump exempted Canada from a 10% aluminum tariff that he imposed on other trading partners. After he returned to the White House, he stripped Canada of its exemption and raised the tariff rate on aluminum to 50%.
