Canada's Macklem Says US Tariffs ‘Biggest Headwind,' NYT Reports

(Bloomberg) -- Bank of Canada Governor Tiff Macklem called President Donald Trump's tariffs the 'biggest headwind' for the country, given the close integration of the two economies, according to the New York Times.

While the impact of the tariffs isn't showing up yet in economic data, policymakers will be 'carefully' tracking the extent to which they impact consumer prices, Macklem told the New York Times. Trump in March announced a 25% tariff on an array of Canadian goods, prompting its neighbor to impose retaliatory levies on certain US products.

Canadian travel to U.S. continues steep decline, data shows

Vehicles approach the United States border crossing as seen from Saint-Bernard-de-Lacolle, Que., Thursday, April 10, 2025. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Graham Hughes Travel between Canada and the United States continues to steeply drop, new data from Statistics Canada shows. In March this year, Canadian residents made 4.3 million trips returning from abroad, a 14.9 per cent decrease from the same month in 2024, in what the agency calls the third consecutive month of year-to-year declines. Among the steepest drops were returning trips by car over the Canada-U.S. land border, down 31.4 per cent to 1.7 million trips in March. Trips to Canada among U.S. residents also fell, down 6.6 per cent from March 2024. Statistics Canada notes that on a seasonally adjusted basis, which accounts for calendar effects like holidays and the number of weekends in a month, U.S. travel to Canada rose slightly, up 2.8 per cent between February and March. Return trips for Canadian travellers declined even accounting for those quirks, however, down 7.1 per cent overall and down 11.7 per cent among automobile trips to the United States.

Canada to highlight deep US trading relationship in meeting with Bessent

BANFF, Alberta (Reuters) -Canada's finance minister said on Friday he would raise the importance of the country's deep trading relationship with the U.S. in a discussion with U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent late on Wednesday. Finance Minister François-Philippe Champagne will hold a bilateral meeting with Bessent on the sidelines of the G7 finance heads conference in Banff, Alberta. "There's a lot for Canada and the United States to discuss," Champagne said, referring to his meeting with Bessent. "Canada is the largest customer (of) the United States. We buy more from the U.S. than China, Japan, the UK and France combined. So we have a very, very deep trading relationship," he said.
