3 Days to Go: What Actually Changes at the Checkout When Canada's Retaliation Tariffs Hit Sept. 8

  Published September 5, 2026 At 12:01 a.m. on Tuesday, September 8, Canada's counter-tariffs on roughly $27.6 billion worth of American imports take effect. Ottawa named six sectors when it announced the move: steel, dairy, appliances, agricultural equipment, pulp and paper, and electronics. But the actual list of taxed items — the one that determines what you pay at checkout — is narrower than those sector names suggest, and mixing the two up is the easiest way to overpay or miss out on a real deal this weekend.

U.S. Halts Tariffs After Supreme Court Declares Them Illegal

The decision follows a 6–3 Supreme Court ruling that found the administration lacked authority to impose broad, emergency‑based tariffs under IEEPA, noting that the law contains no reference to duties. 

CBP’s move raises significant questions about potential refunds for importers who paid the now‑invalidated tariffs. While these IEEPA‑related duties will end immediately, other Trump‑era tariffs imposed under different legal authorities remain in place.
