The Trump administration has announced that 25% tariffs on Mexico and Canada will go into effect on Tuesday, as confirmed by Trump himself. This decision comes after officials initially suggested lower tariff levels, but Trump remained resolute in following through with the higher rate. According to Trump, the tariffs are intended to pressure Mexico and Canada to step up their efforts in combating fentanyl trafficking. However, it is also noted that Trump wants to address the trade imbalance with both countries. The US has also decided to increase tariffs on China from 10% to 20% as part of this move.
No room left. The tariffs are all set. They go into effect tomorrow.
Tomorrow – tariffs 25 per cent on Canada and 25 per cent on Mexico. And that'll start.
What they'll have to do is build their car plants, frankly, and other things in the United States, in which case they have no tariffs.
It's a decision that depends on the United States government, on the United States president.
So whatever his decision is, we will make our decisions and there is a plan and there is unity in Mexico.
We are ready with $155 billion worth of tariffs and we're ready with the first tranche of tariffs, which is $30 billion.
It's going to have a very disruptive effect on businesses, in terms of their supply chains as well as their ability to conduct their business operations effectively.
There are going to be inflationary impacts that are going to be disruptive impacts.
