Trump Increases Tariffs on Canadian Goods

President Trump significantly raised tariffs on Canadian imports to 35%, escalating trade tensions with a major economic partner.

This action, citing Canada's alleged failure to curb drug trafficking, affects various goods despite existing trade agreements.

However, the USMCA largely exempts many Canadian products, such as agricultural goods and industrial products, from these increased tariffs.

The decision, implemented through an executive order, impacts various imports and highlights ongoing trade negotiations with numerous countries.
