Canada to hit back with retaliatory tariffs as Trump tells its leaders to ‘fall in line’

Canada is set to announce retaliatory tariffs against the United States on Tuesday following a sharp deterioration in diplomatic relations between the two nations.

The escalation occurred after US President Donald Trump demanded that Canadian leaders "fall in line," warning of consequences far worse than existing tariffs if they fail to comply.

The standoff marks a significant escalation in trade tensions between the neighboring countries, with Canada preparing direct economic countermeasures in response to the US administration's demands.
