What tariffs will really cost Canadians and Americans

The article discusses potential impacts of rising tariffs between the United States and Canada, particularly focusing on the threat by former U.S. President Donald Trump to impose 50% tariffs on Canadian vehicles starting in early 2027. It highlights concerns over increased costs for manufacturers and consumers, noting that previous tariffs have largely been absorbed by dealers rather than passed on to customers. The article also mentions Canada's retaliatory measures, including tariffs on U.S. wood products and other goods, which could affect home construction costs and consumer choices. Experts suggest that while some goods might see price increases, consumers may opt for domestic alternatives. The 'lumber wars' between the two countries are noted as part of a longer-standing trade dispute.
