Canada's past retaliatory tariffs on U.S. goods include steel and everyday items
In 2018, Canada imposed retaliatory tariffs on U.S. goods after Donald Trump introduced tariffs on steel and aluminum. The Canadian tariffs affected about $16.6 billion worth of products, including steel, aluminum, and various everyday items. The list of targeted U.S. imports included steel products like hollow drill bars and sanitary ware, as well as consumer goods such as strawberry jam and yarn. This response was part of ongoing trade negotiations related to the North American Free Trade Agreement. As Trump prepares to take office again, there is speculation about whether Canada will implement similar tariffs in response to potential new U.S. trade policies.
