US-Canada Trade War Escalates

from Kaya 959 · host Phemelo Motene

Trade tensions between the US and Canada have intensified after Donald Trump imposed 50% tariffs on $20 billion worth of Canadian goods. Canada has vowed to retaliate dollar-for-dollar from 8 September, targeting sectors including steel, dairy, agriculture and electronics. The move follows the collapse of trade talks, with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney accusing Washington of demanding too much while offering too little. Phemelo speaks to a global affairs specialist Dr Terence McNamee about the escalating trade dispute and its wider economic impact. www.kaya959.co.za · Kayafm
