US imposes additional 50% tariffs on select Canadian imports, accuses Ottawa of trade discrimination
The United States imposed additional 50% tariffs on select Canadian imports, including motor vehicles and dairy, effective 30 days after President Trump's signing. The White House accused Canada of trade discrimination, claiming its tariffs and quotas disadvantage U.S. commerce and compel American automakers to invest in Canada instead of the U.S. This move follows Canada's retaliation against previous U.S. tariffs, marking a significant escalation in trade tensions between the two countries.
