Trump's Tariffs Trigger Boycotts, Political Backlash in Canada

News summary

Canadians are expressing widespread anger towards the U.S. following the implementation of significant tariffs by President Trump, which began just after midnight on Tuesday. The tariffs include a 25% duty on most Canadian goods and a 10% duty on energy products, prompting Canadians to boycott American products and cancel trips to the U.S. In retaliation, Canada has announced its own tariffs on $30 billion worth of U.S. goods. Many Canadians feel betrayed by their closest ally, as they believe the trade agreements, such as NAFTA, have been undermined after years of economic integration. Concerns are particularly high in border cities like Windsor, where the local economy heavily relies on cross-border trade, especially in the automotive sector. The situation is seen as a significant shift in U.S.-Canada relations, with long-term implications for trade and economic cooperation.
