WIRE — US President Donald Trump on Monday announced sweeping 50 per cent tariffs on most Canadian imports, accusing Canada of unfairly treating American products, particularly automobiles, alcohol and dairy goods.

However, if they take effect, the move could significantly strain bilateral trade, increase inflationary pressures and deepen uncertainty across global markets.
