What tariffs will really cost Canadians and Americans
(opens the publisher’s site)Canada has begun collecting retaliatory tariffs of up to 50 percent on roughly $20 billion in American imports, escalating the trade dispute with the United States.
- Canada's retaliatory tariffs took effect at 12:01 am Tuesday, ranging from 15 to 50 percent on roughly $20 billion in American imports including steel, appliances, agricultural equipment, pulp and paper, and electronics.
- The measures follow the United States' 50 percent tariff on $20 billion in Canadian goods effective August 22, after trade talks in Washington broke down on August 21.
- Prime Minister Mark Carney said Canada would move faster to reduce its economic reliance on the United States, stating "We can't let American goods into Canada tariff-free while they charge our companies to export to them."
- Trump threatened to block sales of Canada's Bombardier Aviation in the United States unless the Quebec-based plane maker moves its manufacturing there.
