Mississauga reaffirms support for local businesses amid ongoing U.S. trade concerns

By November 30, 2025Resources

Mississauga continues to back local businesses as U.S. trade challenges persist. Council recently reviewed progress on its Partners in Trade plan, which focuses on advocacy, procurement, and targeted business support to protect jobs and strengthen the city’s economy.

Despite ongoing tariffs affecting key sectors such as automotive, steel, and lumber, Mississauga attracted 47 new investments in 2025 worth $1.2 billion, creating 3,300 jobs. Through consultations with more than 100 business leaders, the City is shaping local priorities and urging federal action ahead of CUSMA’s 2026 review.

Mississauga has also applied for provincial funding to help small and medium-sized businesses diversify exports and build local supply chain resilience.
