US-Canada Trade Talks Collapse and Tariff Rise
Trade talks between the United States and Canada collapsed before the new tariffs came into effect. Washington announced it would impose a 50% tariff on Canadian goods worth approximately $20 billion, including wood, electrical equipment, and hockey supplies. Canada refused the proposed concessions, and Canadian Trade Minister Mark Carney stated that the United States had changed its stance unfairly, leading to the suspension of negotiations and the potential escalation of a trade war between the two countries. The steel and aluminum sectors are expected to be significantly affected, with Canada potentially losing up to 90,000 jobs if these tariffs remain in place, amid strong domestic support for a Canadian countermeasure against these actions.
