+++ US Customs Policy +++: Canada Apparently to Impose Retaliatory Tariffs on Tuesday

The US and Canada have agreed to delay new US tariffs on Canadian imports. US President Donald Trump said the planned 50% tariffs on Canadian goods worth around $20 billion would be suspended for three days to allow for further negotiations. The tariffs, which would have affected products such as hockey sticks and medical wooden spatulas, were set to take effect at midnight. Canada's Prime Minister Mark Carney had spoken with Trump in a phone call on Tuesday in an attempt to avert the new tariffs.
