A day after offering Canada a one-month reprieve on punishing nearly across-the-board 25% tariffs, President Donald Trump has threatened new tariffs as soon as Friday on Canadian lumber and dairy products.
Totally ineffective measure by Trump on Canada. Canada’s supply management system is already intended to stop Canadian dairy farmers from overproducing, focused solely to meet our own needs. So farmers and processors are already limited on the US export front. 250%, a bajillion %, is not going to make much difference for this specifically. It just means we close our small export market to them.
