Canada will keep trying to persuade the Trump administration to drop its tariff plans, in part by reaching out to US states that have significant trading relationships with their northern neighbor, trade minister Mary Ng said.

President Trump has threatened 25% tariffs on imports from Canada and Mexico, as well as an additional 10% tariff on imports from China. Here’s what you need to know.

According to President Sheinbaum, Mexico has cut a deal with the U.S. to delay the tariffs. Under the deal, she said Mexico is sending another 10,000 members of its national guard to the southern border to combat drug traffickers, while the U.S. has agreed to do more to prevent the trafficking of high-powered weapons to Mexico.

The move likely will trigger retaliation and risk igniting a trade war that could cause broad economic disruption for all countries involved.

Amid warnings of price increases, Canada moved quickly to retaliate, China said it had planned countermeasures and Mexico said it would soon unveil its response.
