Canada has put a 25% tariff on US lumber and a 50% tariff on US plywood, marking the latest escalation in its trade fight with Washington. At least one provincial government is now calling on local businesses to report how the tariffs are affecting them.
A Nanos poll found a majority of Canadians back the retaliatory tariffs and want Canada to step away from any US trade deal. Businesses and workers in trade-dependent towns are left waiting to see what happens next.
