Trump tariffs on Canadian goods paused for at least 30 days

Trump decided to put a hold on tariffs, as he did earlier today with Mexico, while Canada implements its $1.3-billion border control plan.

Following a second phone conversation with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau today, U.S. President Donald Trump has put a hold of at least 30 days on the 25% tariffs that the U.S. was going to impose on Canadian products tomorrow.

Trump decided to pause tariffs for a month, as he did earlier today with Mexico, while Canada implements its $1.3-billion border control plan. Canada is also committing to appoint a Fentanyl Czar and to list cartels as terrorists.

“Canada is implementing our $1.3-billion border plan — reinforcing the border with new choppers, technology and personnel, enhanced coordination with our American partners, and increased resources to stop the flow of fentanyl. Nearly 10,000 frontline personnel are and will be working on protecting the border.  In addition, Canada is making new commitments to appoint a Fentanyl Czar, we will list cartels as terrorists, ensure 24/7 eyes on the border, and launch a Canada–U.S. Joint Strike Force to combat organized crime, fentanyl and money laundering. I have also signed a new intelligence directive on organized crime and fentanyl and we will be backing it with $200-million.”
