Trump Slaps 50% Tariffs on Canada | Global News

Trump slams Canada with a 50% tariff on most goods, accusing Ottawa of unfair trade practices on cars, booze, and dairy — a move that could spike prices and strain ties between the U.S. and Canada. This isn’t the first time the two nations have clashed over trade, and Canada’s past resistance to Trump’s earlier tariffs may now come with consequences. Three executive orders signed by the president will make the new taxes official in 30 days, skipping energy and fish — while the absence of a renewed USMCA agreement opens the door for years of uncertain negotiations. Trump highlights Canada’s 25% auto tariff, provincial bans on U.S. alcohol, and perceived unfair treatment of American dairy compared to European imports. The fallout adds tension to an already strained relationship, with Prime Minister Mark Carney criticizing U.S. economic coercion — and Trump retorting that Canada depends on America.
