Canada’s retaliatory tariffs on U.S. steel and aluminum take effect
The duties on U.S. steel and aluminum products have doubled to 50% as the tariff dispute with the United States escalates.
Canada has implemented retaliatory tariffs tied to a deepening trade dispute with the United States, with the measures valued at $27.6 billion, CNBC Markets reports.
The new duties target U.S. steel and aluminum products, and the rate has been raised to 50%, according to the coverage.
CNBC World links the move to an ongoing war of words between Washington and Ottawa as both sides continue to escalate the tariff fight.
