Donald Trump Reverses Plans To Double Tariffs

The Trump administration has reversed plans to double tariffs on Canadian metals after Canada dropped its proposed 25% tax on electricity exports to the U.S.

Back & Forth

A 25% tariff on Canadian steel and aluminum will still apply from March 12th, along with imports from other U.S. trading partners. This follows discussions between Ontario Premier Doug Ford and U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick.

Mark Carney, Canada’s incoming Prime Minister, called the tariffs an attack on Canadian businesses, saying they would stay until the United States commits to fair trade.

Stock and crypto markets fell due to Trump’s tariff threats but rebounded slightly after news of Ontario backing off the electricity tax.

White House spokesperson Karoline Leavitt said the U.S. is in an “economic transition.” Senator Bill Hagerty expects the tariffs to stay in place, with uncertainty remaining over final policy decisions.
