Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney announced a 25% tariff on selected U.S. automobile imports in response to what he called violations of free trade principles. Though Canada was initially exempt from Trump’s global tariff measures due to USMCA compliance, new U.S. policies have targeted various goods including vehicles, steel, and aluminum. Calling Trump’s trade policies a “tragedy,” Carney warned that they could destabilize the global economy and marked the end of an era of American economic leadership.
