Trump Moves Forward With Tariffs On Canada And Mexico
President Trump said drugs are still "pouring into our country" from our neighbors at "very high and unacceptable levels."
President Trump is moving forward with tariffs on imports from Canada and Mexico.
The sweeping 25% tariffs on Mexico and Canada was paused earlier this month in exchange for agreements on border security from both countries.
However, Trump said drugs are still “pouring into our country” from our neighbors at “very high and unacceptable levels.”
“We cannot allow this scourge to continue to harm the USA, and therefore, until it stops, or is seriously limited, the proposed tariffs will go into effect on March 4,” Trump said.
In addition, Trump is planning to charge China an additional 10% tariff. That will add to the 10% tariff already imposed on Chinese imports.
