Trump Threatens 50% Tariffs on Canadian Autos | Calgary News
Description
Trump’s threat of a 50% tariff on Canadian autos and auto parts by January 2027 has escalated trade tensions, after talks collapsed as Canada rejected last-minute U.S. demands. While earlier hopes for a deal offering relief on steel, aluminum, and lumber faded, Prime Minister Carney vows dollar-for-dollar retaliation starting September 8. The spat highlights deepening friction — with Trump calling Canada “entitled” and Canada asserting its economic independence — potentially reshaping North American trade and impacting the auto industry.
