How the U.S. Supreme Court’s tariff decision could impact Canada
The Supreme Court reviews challenges to tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, with 25% fentanyl-related duties on Canada at stake, legal experts say.
- The U.S. Supreme Court will hear arguments Wednesday challenging Donald Trump's use of IEEPA to impose tariffs on nearly every nation including Canada.
- Using Section 232, the Trump administration imposed a 25 per cent economywide tariff on Canada after declaring a fentanyl-related emergency.
- Lawyers will argue IEEPA lacks tariff authority since it omits the word `tariff` and was never meant to grant broad powers over duties, requiring an extraordinary threat, while the U.S. Constitution assigns tariff power to Congress.
- Carlo Dade says Canada must prepare for persistent tariffs as the Supreme Court could uphold Trump's fentanyl emergency, while Ottawa appoints a 'Fentanyl Czar' and boosts border security.
- Observers say the ruling will be watched globally as Carlo Dade warned, `If the fentanyl tariffs stay, then we're stuck with the anytime, anywhere, anyhow tariffs,` while some goods remain exempt under CUSMA carveouts.
