> The US-Canada trade war shows no sign of easing. Canadian negotiators left talks in Washington after Prime Minister Mark Carney accused the Trump administration of making disproportionate last-minute demands. The US is imposing 50% tariffs on $20 billion of Canadian goods, while Canada’s retaliatory tariffs on US products are due to begin in early September, posing serious risks to both economies.
