> The United States has imposed 50 percent tariffs on more than $20bn of Canadian goods after negotiators failed to finalise a trade agreement. Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney vowed to respond with tariffs “dollar for dollar”, while US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer blamed Canada for abandoning terms reached earlier in the week.
