Trump Delays Tariffs on Canada and Mexico to April 2

 

In a recent announcement, U.S. President Donald Trump has postponed the implementation of 25% tariffs on imports from Canada and Mexico to April 2. This decision comes after an initial deadline of March 4 was set earlier this month. The delay was revealed during Trump's first cabinet meeting, where he mentioned his superstition about starting the tariffs on April 1.

The tariffs, which target non-energy goods from Canada and various imports from Mexico, have been a point of contention between the U.S. and its neighboring countries. Canadian officials and premiers have been actively engaging with the Trump administration in an attempt to negotiate a resolution.

As the new deadline approaches, the focus will be on how Canada and Mexico respond to the U.S. demands and whether further delays or adjustments will be made.
