US-Canada Trade War Could Make These Everyday Items Pricier
- Following the collapse of last-ditch negotiations on Friday, President Donald Trump enacted 50% tariffs on roughly $20 billion in Canadian goods, escalating the trade conflict between The United States and Canada.

- New duties cover dairy, Alcohol, and paper products, which accounted for around $1.5 billion in imports to The United States from Canada last year, including $780 million in dairy alone.
