How Canada and Mexico Just Stunned the U.S. Economy with Bold Moves?Canada and Mexico’s recent actions have sent shockwaves through the U.S. economy, and Washington wasn’t ready. What was meant to reinforce U.S. influence has triggered a calculated response from its closest neighbors.
The country’s new prime minister, Mark Carney, has been called the “Trump whisperer,” and negotiations have been cordial and professional. But it’s been a wild ride.
If implemented, Trump's new 35 percent duties will be "separate from all Sectoral Tariffs," such as the 50 percent tariff on steel and aluminum imports. Trump also promised that, if Canada raises its own tariffs in response, then "whatever number [Canada chooses] to raise them by, will be added onto the 35% that [the U.S. charges]."
The country with the most favorable view of the United States was Israel, with 95% viewing it as an ally and 1% viewing it as a threat. Mexico, meanwhile, had the least favorable responses, 37% viewing the United States as an ally and 68% a threat.
