Canada to Review USMCA Amid Trump’s Tariffs Being Struck Down
The Canadian government has announced plans to review the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) following a US Supreme Court ruling that struck down President Donald Trump’s tariffs on steel and aluminum imports.
In a separate development, the Supreme Court justices have expressed differing opinions on how to treat former President Trump and current President Joe Biden in tariff cases. The court’s decision has sparked debate among lawmakers and industry experts.
Meanwhile, President Trump has announced plans to increase global tariffs to 15% from 10%, effective immediately. This move is expected to impact various industries, including wine imports.
A small wine importer had previously risked his business by challenging Trump’s tariffs in a bid to protect his company’s interests. The Supreme Court’s recent ruling on the issue has provided some relief for importers and exporters.
The Cato Institute has welcomed the Supreme Court’s decision on the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), but cautioned against celebrating prematurely.
