What happened
President Donald Trump's administration has implemented new tariffs on imports. These duties include a 50 per cent tariff on roughly $28-billion worth of Canadian goods, such as beer, which took effect on August 22. The outright ban on Canadian beer imports was scheduled to take effect on September 29. Sen. Kirsten E. Gillibrand introduced legislation to repeal President Trump’s 50% tariffs against Canada and halt the impending import ban.
Why it matters
The tariffs are driven by the administration's actions following a trade agreement failure. The duties increase costs for imported goods and affect the market access for Canadian products in the United States.
Tariffs driven up costs for imported goods.
