Trump Delays Mexico, Canada Auto Tariffs: One Month of Uncertainty
President Trump temporarily exempted auto tariffs on Mexico and Canada for one month, yielding to pressure from Ford, General Motors, and Stellantis to avoid financial harm. This reprieve, however, does not affect other existing 25% tariffs on Mexican and Canadian goods. The exemption is intended to allow automakers time to shift production to the US, a goal the administration hopes to achieve. Despite the temporary relief, Canada remains opposed to any tariffs on its goods.
