Canada’s retaliatory tariffs worth $27.6B take effect as trade rift with U.S. deepens

Canada has introduced and raised tariffs on $27.6 billion worth of U.S. goods, including dairy, agricultural equipment, paper, household appliances and electronics.

U.S. steel, aluminum and iron products, furniture and clothing were hit with the highest rate of 50%.
