trump us canada tariffs timeline.

President Donald Trump’s barrage of tariffs has quickly strained the United States’ longstanding relationship with Canada over the last year. Since taking office in January, Trump has threatened Canada’s economy and sovereignty with steep import taxes on its goods. That’s outraged Canadians, created uncertainty for businesses and consumers across both countries and led to Canada’s own retaliatory measures. And just this week, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney outlined plans to double its non-U.S. exports in the next decade. Meanwhile, Trump now says he’s ending “all trade negotiations” with Canada, over a TV ad opposing his new levies.
