US-Canada merchandise are 99 % tariff-free: Canadian ambassador to US

Kirsten Hillman, Canada’s ambassador to the U.S., mentioned Monday that 99 % of goods traded between the 2 international locations are tariff-free, as tensions escalate following President Trump’s imposition of latest price lists and Ontario’s retaliatory measures.

“Between Canada and the United States under the [U.S.-Mexico-Canada agreement], the deal that we negotiated under President Trump in his first term, Canada and the United States are 99 percent tariff-free,” Hillman instructed NewsNation’s “CUOMO,” hours after assembly with High Minister-designate Mark Carney.

She added that the remainder tariffed merchandise are basically within the agricultural sector and are in particular designed to give protection to small circle of relatives farms.

Hillman defended Canada’s place, noting that the US sells 3 times as a lot dairy product to Canada as vice versa.

“Canada is your No. 1 customer, and you have a trade surplus with Canada in all manufactured goods,” Hillman mentioned. “We provide affordable, reliable energy that helps fuel the U.S. economy.”

She defined that each international locations take care of identical protecting measures — the U.S. for sugar, dairy, fruit and veggies, whilst Canada basically restricts dairy imports.

Those price lists best turn on after agreed-upon import quotas are reached, as negotiated below the USMCA.

The Ontario executive introduced it applied a 25 % surcharge on electrical energy exports to Michigan, Minnesota and New York, affecting roughly 1.5 million properties and companies. The measure may just price as much as $400,000 in line with day, consistent with a observation from the premier’s workplace.

The Canadian motion is available in direct reaction to the Trump management’s fresh imposition of 25 % price lists on Canadian and Mexican imports. Trump has since exempted automakers from the price lists and behind schedule implementation for items coated below the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Settlement.

Carney, who received the Liberal Birthday party management with just about 86 % of the vote, is predicted to be sworn in as top minister inside days.

He has taken a company stance at the industry dispute, announcing Sunday, “The Canadian government has rightly retaliated. … My government will keep our tariffs on until the Americans show us respect.”

The Hill contributed reporting.
