Canada Immediately Levied 25% Retaliatory Tariffs On U.S. Goods, Standing To Hike The Cost Of Consumer Good 

WASHINGTON, DC – Congressman Tim Kennedy (NY-26) released the following statement as President Trump’s levied tariffs on Canada: 

“Trump’s tariffs, now officially implemented, have already created economic turmoil in Western New York and across the country,” said Congressman Kennedy. “As expected, Canada has immediately responded with retaliatory tariffs on more than $100 billion of U.S. goods, which will increase prices for hardworking families. All these tariffs will do is destroy centuries of goodwill between our neighbors, create a new consumer tax on Americans who are already struggling to make ends meet, and cost jobs. I am doing everything I can to pressure President Trump to stand down from his trade wars, otherwise hardworking families will pay the price.”
