Canada has retaliated against Trump. Should Carney go even further?

On Tuesday morning, Carney’s team showed its hand on the retaliatory tariffs it promised, revealing the list of products to be hit with duties starting September 8. The plan is to apply 50 per cent tariffs on steel and aluminum imports from the U.S., as well as furniture, clothing, milk, plywood, paper, honey, doors and windows, smartphones, and perfumes, among others. Additional products will face 25 per cent tariffs, including carpets and textiles, cheese, large kitchen appliances, and seafood.
