Canada Taxes $27.6 Billion in U.S. Goods Starting September 8

Starting September 8, 2026, Canada will tax $27.6 billion worth of U.S. imports at rates from 15 to 50 per cent, after trade talks failed August 21. Think of it as a toll charged on American goods entering Canada — a response to U.S. tariffs. Ottawa may raise the toll to $155 billion. Trump separately threatens 50 per cent taxes on Canadian cars and parts.
