U.S. Imposes 50% Tariff on Canadian Goods Amid Retaliation Spat

The United States has announced a 50% tariff on certain Canadian goods, escalating trade tensions between the two allies. The move comes as a response to what Washington calls retaliation claims by Canada. However, key imports such as energy, fish, and critical minerals have been excluded from the tariff. The decision is likely to impact bilateral trade, which totals hundreds of billions of dollars annually. Analysts warn that this could lead to further retaliatory measures, affecting global supply chains and consumer prices.
