Summary
Canada’s trade war with the U.S. is heating up as new retaliatory tariffs take effect, hitting American goods with added taxes and sparking economic uncertainty. Prime Minister Mark Carney says Canada’s ready to negotiate a lasting deal—but the U.S. must lead. Talks collapsed in August, and since then, little progress has been made. While many Canadians back the tariffs, economists warn consumers will pay the price through higher everyday costs. The Canadian Chamber of Commerce urges caution to avoid endless escalation, while businesses brace for a prolonged standoff. Even delicate sectors like lobster—deeply tied to U.S. markets—had to backtrack on proposed tariffs after domestic industry backlash. Despite recent job losses coinciding with the tariffs, Canada’s economy showed resilience earlier this year, and Carney is pushing to diversify trade beyond the U.S., which already sees a shrinking share of Canadian exports.
