President Trump has imposed significant tariffs of 25% on imports from Canada and Mexico, and 10% on Chinese goods, citing a national emergency stemming from issues related to drugs and migration. This has triggered swift retaliatory actions from both Canadian and Mexican leaders, raising fears of a trade war. Economists are concerned about rising prices and potential economic recession, especially in Canada, as the U.S. enforces these duties with broad powers under national emergency statutes, amidst promises from Trump to maintain these tariffs until the presumed emergency resolves.
Trump's tariffs on goods from Canada and Mexico aim to combat what he claims is a national emergency related to fentanyl and undocumented migration. Canada and Mexico responded with retaliatory tariffs.
The imposition of these tariffs has sparked fear of a potential trade war, with economists warning that it could lead to price hikes in the US and a possible recession in Canada.
