00:00A new U.S. ban on certain Canadian imports is now in effect, escalating the trade dispute
00:05between Washington and Ottawa. The restrictions cover dozens of Canadian product lines,
00:11including alcoholic beverages, whey, molasses, non-alcoholic beer, and motorcycles. The affected
00:17goods are barred from entering the U.S. rather than simply facing a higher tariff, while other
00:22Canadian products remain subject to existing duties. Canadian producers, particularly smaller
00:28alcohol makers, could face significant disruptions because the U.S. is a major export market.
