Global Tariffs

The United States has implemented new tariffs on imported medium and heavy-duty trucks, as well as buses, with a 25 percent levy on trucks and a 10 percent levy on buses. Trade negotiations between the U.S. and Canada remain halted, with ongoing tensions between the Trump administration and Canadian officials, particularly Ontario Premier Doug Ford.

U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Besant clarified that an additional 10 percent tariff threatened by President Trump on Canadian goods has not yet been enacted. The situation is further complicated by criticism of a Canadian ad campaign and accusations of election interference, while the Trump administration faces international criticism for its tariff policies.

Talks still halted as U.S. tariffs on some imported trucks, buses take effect

Well, new tariffs on types of vehicles imported into the United States are now in effect. President Donald Trump imposed a 25 per cent levy on medium and heavy duty trucks, along with 10 per cent on buses. Meanwhile, the trade talks still remain halted between Canada and the US. Journalist Ira Spitzer has more from Washington. Well, the acrimonious tone continues from the Trump administration towards the Canadian government or really more specifically, in this case, towards Ontario Premier Doug Ford. And the Treasury Secretary, Scott Besant, was on the television earlier today on Sunday where he did a few things. He seemed to poke a jab at the Toronto Blue Jays' loss in the World Series as well, as again, criticise the ad from the Ontario Premier, authorised by the Ontario Premier using Ronald Reagan's words to criticise Donald Trump's tariffs. However, he also specified that the 10 per cent additional tariffs threatened by President Trump on Canada recently hadn't actually gone into effect yet. Here's what Treasury Secretary Scott Besant had to say. He hasn't put on a 10 per cent tariff. He threatened to put on a 10 per cent tariff. So he didn't actually do it. It hasn't been put on yet. And this is unacceptable that I read that the Premier of Ontario spent $75 million sending propaganda across the US border via our airwaves, via our own airwaves. It's the equivalent of election interference. Nobody likes foreign election interference. Nobody likes foreign governments trying to sway public opinion for their own good. Of course, those negotiations have been halted due to President Trump's apparent anger. Now we have recently seen an apology from Mark Carney, Prime Minister Carney. So it's unclear whether that will sway the Trump administration, which of course is facing lots of criticism, not just from the Canadian side, but around the world for the tariff regime.
