Canada to announce retaliatory tariffs on U.S. Tuesday

Prime Minister Mark Carney has vowed the government would impose dollar-for-dollar tariffs on American goods.

Canada's government will announce measures to support workers and businesses affected by US tariffs. The US imposed 50% tariffs on about $20 billion of Canadian exports.

The Canadian government is considering a targeted approach, rather than matching US tariffs dollar for dollar. This comes after talks with the US Trump administration collapsed.

US President Donald Trump threatened new 50% tariffs on Canadian vehicles, auto parts, and steel. In response, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney accused the US of trying to subordinate Canada and dismantle major Canadian industries.
