The U.S. and Canada have escalated their trade war, with the U.S. imposing new tariffs on Canadian goods and threatening to ban specific Canadian products. Canada has retaliated with its own tariffs. The conflict has led to fears of broader economic fallout, potentially impacting American jobs in key states, as Canadian provinces have also begun banning certain U.S. imports like liquor.
