U.S. President Donald Trump has ignited a global trade storm by raising tariffs on Canadian imports to 35%, accusing Ottawa of failing to curb fentanyl and drug flows into America. Prime Minister Mark Carney defended Canada’s efforts, but Trump claimed negotiations fell short. The new rate—up from 25%—comes amid broader tariffs hitting dozens of countries.

Despite the USMCA shielding nearly 90% of Canadian exports, key goods like dairy, wood, and leather may still be taxed. Trump spared Mexico for now but warned that other nations—including Taiwan, India, Laos, and even Switzerland—face harsh levies, some as high as 41%. Critics warn of soaring consumer prices and economic disruption, but the White House insists the tariffs are "rebuilding the greatest economy in history." With global trade talks in limbo and retaliations expected, this marks Trump’s boldest move yet in his battle to reset world commerce.
