Trump says tariffs on Canada and Mexico ‘will go forward’
President Donald Trump confirmed that tariffs on Canadian and Mexican imports are "on time and on schedule," despite their efforts to enhance border security and combat fentanyl trafficking into the U.S. ahead of the March 4 deadline.
The tariffs could affect over $918 billion in U.S. imports and disrupt the North American economy, particularly the automotive sector.
Justin Trudeau has warned of retaliatory tariffs on $107 billion worth of U.S. imports, but he affirmed that Canada will work to prevent these tariffs.
Recent polls show that only 28% of Americans support tariffs on Canada, highlighting potential political risks for Trump.
