Trump Administration To Ban Some Canadian Goods

The Trump administration is planning to ban imports of Canadian dairy products, most alcoholic beverages and motorcycles.

The Trump administration has expanded the trade fight with Canada.

Following the president’s 50% tariffs on Canadian goods, Canada imposed retaliation tariffs on U.S. goods. In response to that, Trump is planning to ban imports of Canadian dairy products, most alcoholic beverages and motorcycles.

The restrictions will take effect in three weeks. The latest moves deepen the trade conflict between two of North America’s largest trading partners, with both governments imposing new measures despite their closely integrated economies and long-standing commercial relationship.

President Trump also directed the General Services Administration to declare Canadian products ineligible for long-term U.S. government contracts until Canada allows what the White House called “full and fair reciprocity” for American products.
