Canada strikes back in the trade war
About this episode
The episode discusses Canada's tariffs on U.S. imports as a response to the trade war and explores the economic implications of financially supporting parents.
Tariffs on about $20 billion worth of U.S. imports to Canada are officially in effect today. The import duties are Canada’s response to tariffs imposed by the Trump administration last month and a sign that the renewed trade war with the United States’ second-largest trading partner is nowhere near an end. This morning, we explain Canada's tariffs, put them into context, and discuss their market impacts. Also: the long-term effects of financially supporting your parents.
