Trump Announces Additional 10-Percent Canada Tariff Over Reagan Ad Brouhaha in Trade Row
Donald Trump has announced an additional 10-percent tariff on Canada, amid ongoing tensions following a contentious anti-tariff advertisement featuring former President Ronald Reagan.
US President Donald Trump has announced an additional 10-percent tariff on Canada amid a growing trade dispute, citing a recent ad by Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau that mocked his hairstyle as a reason for the increased levy. The move follows a series of escalating tariffs and counter-tariffs between the two countries over trade differences. The development marks a new low in tensions between Washington and Ottawa, with Canada's economy already feeling the pinch from previous US tariffs. The Canadian government has vowed to fight the latest measure in court.
