Trump signed three proclamations, according to the White House on Monday (July 20), that would impose additional 50-per-cent tariffs on certain Canadian goods \u201cin response to Canada\u2019s discriminatory treatment of American products.\u201d The latest tariffs fall under Section 338 of the Tariff Act of 1930 and include products ranging from wine to hockey sticks to cement. The tariffs are set to take effect 30 days after signing. Section 338, the White House says, allows the president to impose tariffs when a country \u201cdisadvantages U.S. exporters relative to the exports of another country to offset the disadvantage or burden on U.S. commerce.\u201d The White House pointed to Canada imposing certain tariffs and quotas on cars imported to Canada from the U.S., but not on imports from other countries. It also pointed to all but two Canadian provinces and territories \u2013 which includes B.C. \u2013 have stopped the purchase, distribution and selling of American alcohol products, but not on other countries. The White House also adds the tariffs apply to all covered goods regardless of whether a good originates under CUSMA, the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement. In a statement, Prime Minister Mark Carney said this move was the \u201clatest in a series of unilateral U.S. trade actions that began with the U.S. imposing a series of tariffs in direct violation\u201d of CUSMA, specifically pointing to the tariffs on the auto sector. \u201cCanada believes in the benefits of free and fair trade, as evidenced by our new government signing more than 20 new economic and security partnerships,\u201d he said. \u201cThis trade dispute has raised costs for families, particularly in the U.S. Canada stands ready to engage intensively to address outstanding issues with the U.S. to the mutual benefit of our citizens.\u201d Carney said that over the past 18 months, Canada has made a \u201cseries of detailed and comprehensive proposals to resolve this dispute and to modernise CUSMA.\u201d He added his government stands \u201cready proposals to resolve this dispute and to modernise CUSMA.\u201d             <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Trump says 50% tariffs coming to some Canadian products Published 4:14 pm Monday, July 20, 2026 U.S. President Donald Trump is again threatening tariffs against Canada.
