  "account": "On Tuesday, Canada announced retaliatory tariff measures in response to the United States' trade war. These new levies were set to take effect on September 8. A 50% tariff was imposed on various American dairy products, including milk, cream, whey, fresh cheese, and several types of cheese such as Camembert, brie, blue cheese, cheddar, mozzarella, Swiss, Gruyère, Havarti, and Parmesan. The tariff on seafood, such as fresh, preserved, and frozen varieties like salmon, halibut, cod, haddock, tuna, and various smaller fish, was also imposed at a 25% rate. Wood products like softwood sawn or sliced thicker than six millimeters, plywood, veneered panels, toilet paper, facial tissue, napkins, sanitary products, and wooden furniture for household use were subject to 25% or 50% tariffs, depending on the specific product. Steel and aluminum products, including steel rods, bars, sheets, prefabricated items like bridges and door frames, aluminum wires, bars, rods, and foil, and various electronics such as smartphones, golf clubs, video game consoles, chandeliers, exercise equipment, fishing rods, and plastic products like walls, ceiling coverings, bags, packaging, and kitchenware, were all subject to a 50% tariff.",
