Effective August 1, 2025, former President Donald Trump announced a significant 35% tariff on all Canadian imports, marking a major escalation in trade tensions between the U. S. and Canada, with further increases threatened if Canada retaliates. This action fits into a larger plan including possible 15–20% blanket levies on other U. S. trading partners without new agreements, together with already existing sectoral tariffs like a 50% tariff on copper and higher duties on steel, aluminum, and automobile goods. Though Canada is a small source, Trump said that Canada's unwillingness to stop fentanyl smuggling justified his action. While Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney has promised to defend Canadian workers and put retaliatory actions in place, the White House is warning several nations of new reciprocal tariff rates that could range up to 40%.
