Trump hits Canada with 35 per cent tariffs

WASHINGTON – Canada has been hit with 35 per cent tariffs after U.S. President Donald Trump followed through on his threat to increase duties if Ottawa didn't agree to a trade deal. The White House said the tariffs would not affect goods compliant with the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement on trade. Prime Minister Mark Carney had tempered expectations of an agreement by Friday, saying Ottawa would only take the right deal for Canada. On Thursday, Trump gave Mexico a 90-day extension on trade negotiations but did not announce a similar offer for Canada. Trump's 50 per cent copper tariffs also came into effect just after midnight, but this latest duty exempts the raw input material.

Tariff Order Signed by Trump Sets 15% for Japan

On July 31, the White House unveiled a sweeping update to its reciprocal tariffs policy, announcing new rates on imports from a wide range of countries and regions. The tariffs will range from 10% to 41%. A 15% rate has been applied to nations such as Japan, South Korea, and the European Union (EU), consistent with their tariff negotiations with the United States. President Donald Trump signed an executive order authorizing the changes, which are set to take effect seven days from the date of signing.

India will be hit with a 25% rate, while Taiwan will see a 20% tariff imposed. Countries not explicitly assigned individual rates will be subject to a standard 10% tariff, according to the official White House release. Separately, Canada, having failed to reach a deal in negotiations over synthetic drug enforcement, will see its tariff rate rise from 25% to 35% under a targeted measure. This aims to curb the flow of illicit substances into the United States. Separately, Trump signed a 90-day delay of the tariffs he has imposed on Mexico. The delay allows time for negotiations on border enforcement as well as trade between the two neighbors. (Read the article in Japanese .) Author: Nagahisa Shiobara, The Sankei Shimbun
