What happened

The 50% tariffs on selected Canadian imports are now estimated to affect nearly $20 billion in goods, about 5% of Canada’s trade with the United States, and have drawn warnings about consumer costs and legal vulnerability. Trump signed three proclamations using Section 338 of the Tariff Act of 1930, targeting products including alcohol, dairy, cement, hockey sticks and some auto-related goods. The White House says the measures respond to Canada’s treatment of U.S. autos, alcohol and dairy, while Canada says it will intensify USMCA negotiations.
