Trump, Mexico and Tariff
Digest more
The Canadian prime minister said it may not be possible to escape U.S. tariffs even with a bilateral agreement to resolve the current tariff row.
Still, in a letter addressed to Carney last week, Trump advised that Canadian goods imported into the U.S. could face a blanket 35 percent tariff starting next month. A White House official, granted anonymity to discuss the negotiations, told POLITICO the administration plans to impose the tariff only on goods that do not comply with the USMCA.
Trump threatened to escalate tariffs beyond 35% if Canada opts to retaliate with tariffs on U.S. goods. Canadian goods are also subject to sector-specific tariffs, such as 50% levies on steel and aluminum as well as 25% tariffs on non-USMCA compliant autos and auto parts.
