The United States ruled out resuming trade talks with Canada after imposing new 50% tariffs.

The United States government has officially ruled out resuming trade negotiations with Canada following the implementation of a 50% tariff on Canadian imports. The new trade barriers took effect at midnight on Saturday, marking a significant escalation in bilateral economic tensions. United States Trade Representative Jamieson Greer confirmed that there are no current plans to restart dialogue after the breakdown of previous discussions.

In response to the U.S. measures, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney announced that Canada will implement retaliatory tariffs on a dollar-for-dollar basis. This move signals a formal shift toward a trade dispute, as both nations move away from diplomatic negotiations in favor of reciprocal economic countermeasures.
