Canada Imposes Retaliatory Tariffs on U.S. Goods Amid Trade Dispute
Canada has implemented retaliatory tariffs ranging from 15 to 50 percent on approximately 700 U.S. products worth around $20-28 billion, including steel, dairy, electronics, and consumer goods. This move follows the collapse of trade negotiations and aims to pressure the U.S. amid an 18-month trade dispute. Canadian officials emphasize the tariffs seek to end the trade conflict rather than escalate it, while economic experts note limited immediate impact on consumers. The dispute raises uncertainty over the future of the USMCA agreement.
