U.S. Tariffs on Canada Spark Trade Crisis | Winnipeg News

The U.S. is slapping 50% tariffs on $28 billion in Canadian goods—over 500 product categories—claiming Canada unfairly targets American alcohol, dairy, and cars, but it’s really a retaliatory move after Canada made concessions like ditching its digital tax and rolling back its streaming law. The U.S. says undoing bad policies doesn’t count as goodwill, exposing a troubling pattern of one-sided deals and broken trust. Using an outdated 1930s law, the U.S. also slapped 10% tariffs on countries failing to stop forced labor—though Canada’s largely shielded. Canada’s caught in a bind: stay firm to avoid a bad deal, or risk deeper dependence on an increasingly unpredictable trading partner.
