Trade War Trouble? How U.S.-Canada Tensions Could Hit Utah Wallets

from KSL News Daily

Rising tensions between the United States and Canada are creating uncertainty for Utah businesses with cross-border ties and raising concerns that consumers could soon feel the impact through higher prices. On today's episode of KSL News Daily, Maria Shilaos takes a closer look at the growing trade dispute, what it means for Utah's economy, and how retailers are preparing for possible fallout. Maria explores the issue with Zions Bank Chief Economist Robert Spendlove and President of the Utah Retail Merchants Association Dave Davis.   Plus, The Great Salt Lake has dropped to its second-lowest level on record, prompting new efforts to conserve incoming runoff, A new University of Utah dormitory is sitting more than half empty as hundreds of beds remain unfilled this semester and proposed data center in Salt Lake City faces hurdles as residents raise concerns about noise, traffic, and visual impacts.   And before you go:  a surprising new study finds massive amounts of water and ice hidden beneath Utah's mountains, revealing a potential flood risk that researchers say could have consequences similar to deadly events seen in Nepal.
