The reporting
Canada’s retaliatory tariffs on C$27.6 billion of U.S. imports are set to take effect at 12:01 a.m. Eastern on Tuesday after trade talks with the Trump administration collapsed. The duties range from 15% to 50% and cover hundreds of products, including 25% on U.S. cheese and 50% on honey and aluminum foil. Ottawa imposed the measures in response to U.S. tariffs of up to 50% on Canadian goods. Trump has threatened further action, including possible import bans and measures targeting a Montreal aircraft manufacturer.
