The US and Canada could pull back from an all-out trade war. It's not clear that they will
Canada’s retaliation targets steel, dairy, appliances and farm equipment as negotiators warn the dispute could still be pulled back from a wider trade war.
- Canada retaliated against the United States on Tuesday by announcing steep new tariffs on roughly $20 billion worth of American goods, escalating the trade war after negotiations between Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney and President Donald Trump collapsed.
- Explaining Canada's decision to walk away Friday, Carney accused the administration of attempting to "destroy our major industries," including autos, steel, and aluminum, while treating Canada as a "subsidiary of the United States."
- President Trump has threatened to label Lake Ontario "Lake America" and demanded Canada "fall in line," complicating a trade relationship valued at $880 billion last year.
- Border states including Ohio and Michigan may face significant impacts, as UCLA School of Law professor Kimberly Clausing noted these regions will suffer from reduced trade in autos and auto parts.
- Former U.S. negotiator Wendy Cutler suggests the countries may eventually strike a deal to end the conflict, as current tariffs cover only around 5% of Canadian exports to the United States.
