UPDATE - In an executive order signed on July 31, 2025, and entered into effect on August 1, 2025, the US Government has elected to increase the current tariff rate on Canadian goods to 35% - an increase of 10% from the tariffs first established in February of this year.
Notably, this does not affect the 10% on certain energy products, and goods covered by CUSMA/USMCA/T-MEC remain exempt from this tariff.
