Trump's trade war with Canada: A timeline of how we got here
- President Trump has imposed tariffs on Canadian imports, straining U.S.-Canada relations.
- In January 2025, Trump announced a 25% tariff on imports from Canada, citing a national emergency.
- Canada responded with its own retaliatory tariffs amounting to $20.7 billion on U.S. goods.
- Recent negotiations failed, leading to a 50% tariff on $20 billion worth of Canadian imports.
- Prime Minister Mark Carney promised to match the new U.S. tariffs on Canadian goods.
President Donald Trump has imposed a series of tariffs on Canadian imports, which has strained the longstanding relationship between the United States and Canada. During his second term, Trump threatened Canada's economy with steep new import taxes, suggesting at times that Canada could become 'the 51st state.'
In January 2025, Trump announced a 25% tariff on imports from Canada, declaring a national emergency related to undocumented immigration and drug trafficking. This led to promises of retaliatory measures from then-Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
The situation escalated in April 2025 when Trump announced additional tariffs, including a 25% rate on Canadian goods. Canada responded with its own tariffs, amounting to $20.7 billion on U.S. imports. Most recently, Trump followed through on a threat to impose 50% tariffs on $20 billion worth of Canadian imports after negotiations failed, prompting Prime Minister Mark Carney to promise matching tariffs.
特朗普与加拿大的贸易战：我们是如何走到这一步的时间线
特朗普总统对加拿大进口商品实施了一系列关税，这导致美国与加拿大之间长期关系的紧张。在他的第二个任期内，特朗普以高额新进口税威胁加拿大经济，有时甚至暗示加拿大可能成为“第51个州”。
2025年1月，特朗普宣布对来自加拿大的进口征收25%的关税，理由是与非法移民和毒品贩运相关的国家紧急状态。这导致时任总理贾斯廷·特鲁多承诺采取报复性措施。
局势在2025年4月升级，特朗普宣布追加关税，包括对加拿大商品征收25%的税率。加拿大对此作出回应，对美国进口商品征收207亿加元的关税。最近，特朗普在谈判失败后兑现了对价值200亿美元的加拿大进口征收50%关税的威胁，卡尼总理承诺将对等征收关税。
