Trade Tensions Escalate: China and Canada Strike Back at U.S. Tariffs


In a dramatic escalation of global trade tensions, China and Canada have swiftly retaliated against the sweeping tariffs imposed by former U.S. President Donald Trump. The U.S. recently enacted a 25% tariff on most imports from Canada and Mexico, alongside a 10% increase on Chinese goods, doubling the existing duties to 20%.

China responded by imposing tariffs of up to 15% on key U.S. agricultural products, including chicken, wheat, and corn, while Canada announced immediate tariffs of 25% on $20.7 billion worth of American goods, with plans to expand these measures further.
