Former President Trump proposes 50% tariffs on Canadian vehicles and steel, intensifying trade dispute

Former President Donald Trump has threatened to impose new 50% tariffs on Canadian-made cars, trucks, and steel, further escalating trade tensions with Canada. This follows existing 50% tariffs on $20 billion in Canadian goods. Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney has conditioned trade talks on a "right attitude" from the U.S., with economists warning the dispute risks Canada's economic recovery.
