US-Canada tariffs

Where things stand

Trump has lifted tariffs on some Canadian farm and forestry goods while his administration accuses Ottawa of meddling in the midterms. Trump and adviser Hassett now say a broader tariff deal is close, though no agreement has been announced.

The United States under President Trump has imposed tariffs on Canadian goods, and Canada under Prime Minister Mark Carney has pushed back in a trade dispute between the two neighbours. The measures hit sectors such as agriculture and forestry, and the dispute has become entangled with US domestic politics.
