US and Canada escalate trade war with new tariffs on cars, alcohol and more
The United States and Canada have intensified their trade conflict, with both countries imposing fresh tariffs on goods including cars, building materials, household products and alcohol. The move follows a threat by US President Donald Trump to raise tariffs on Canadian imports and a promise of retaliatory duties by Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney's government.
The trade dispute between the United States and Canada has escalated as both countries announced new tariffs on a range of goods, including cars, building materials, household products and alcohol. The measures come after US President Donald Trump threatened to raise tariffs on Canadian imports, prompting Prime Minister Mark Carney's government to respond with retaliatory duties on several US products.
The two neighbours have been engaged in an economic conflict since Trump returned to the White House and launched his trade policy. The tariffs could raise costs for businesses and consumers, and may also affect jobs, investment and cross-border trade. The USMCA trade agreement between the US, Canada and Mexico now faces greater uncertainty as the dispute continues.
