Canada Retaliates Against US Car Tariffs
In response to new US tariffs on various imported goods, Canada has implemented reciprocal 25% tariffs on select US automobile imports and parts. These retaliatory measures, announced by Finance Minister Champagne, target vehicles and components non-compliant with the CUSMA agreement or containing non-Canadian/Mexican content. The action follows President Trump’s imposition of global tariffs and ongoing trade disputes with Canada. This tit-for-tat escalation comes amidst heightened tensions between the two North American neighbours.
