Trump's New Trade Tariffs on Canada

President Trump increased tariffs on Canadian goods to 35%, intensifying trade disputes with a key ally.

He justified this move by claiming inadequate cooperation from Canada on drug-smuggling issues, disregarding recent progress.

The USMCA trade deal significantly limits this impact, exempting a large portion of Canadian exports from the tariff hike.

Nevertheless, certain products like dairy, wood, and leather might still experience heightened tariffs, depending on future negotiations.
