Canada has announced C$29.8 billion in retaliatory tariffs on U.S. imports in response to President Trump's tariffs on steel and aluminum. The countermeasures target a wide range of American products, including steel, aluminum, computers, sports equipment, and cast iron. This move follows the expiration of exemptions and marks a significant escalation in trade tensions between the two countries. Canadian officials stated that these tariffs are necessary to protect domestic industries and respond to U.S. trade policies. The dispute raises concerns about further economic fallout and potential negotiations between the two nations.
