British Columbia Premier David Eby says he is standing firm behind the legislation granting the province the ability to levy new fees on U.S. commercial trucks heading to Alaska, despite political threats involving the cruise ship sector from an Alaskan senator.

Eby says in response to comments made by U.S. Sen. Dan Sullivan that the Canadian side knows “the consequences for Alaskans are a big deal” if any truck fees are imposed, and he expects Alaska to “respond in kind” if that were to happen.
