Trump's Tariff Increase: President Trump announced a significant increase in tariffs on steel and aluminum imports from Canada, raising the duty to 50% effective March 12th, in response to Canada's own tariffs on U.S. electricity and dairy products.
Response from Canada: Ontario Premier Doug Ford criticized Trump's actions as an unprovoked trade war and stated that Canada will not back down until the threat of tariffs is eliminated.
