  • Canada has temporarily paused some counter tariffs against the United States but maintains that 70% of these tariffs are still in place.
  • Finance Minister Francois-Philippe Champagne denied claims that all retaliatory tariffs were quietly lifted, emphasizing a calibrated approach to limit economic harm.
  • The pause affects sectors like food and beverage processing, health, manufacturing, and national security, offering a six-month relief period for Canadian companies to adjust supply chains.
  • Canada continues to charge tariffs on approximately CAD 43 billion (USD 31 billion) of US goods amid ongoing trade tensions with the US.
