加拿大总理卡尼周二宣布对价值约200亿美元的美国商品实施报复性关税,以回应特朗普政府的最新关税举措 1。这批关税涵盖钢铁、铝、奶酪、家电、服装、化妆品和农业设备等数百种美国产品,税率分别为15%、25%或50% 1。关税于周二凌晨12时01分生效,通过行政命令实施 1。
根据数据,这笔关税额度约占美国去年对加拿大出口总额333.6亿美元的约6% 1。贸易冲突升级之际,加拿大-美国贸易谈判已于8月21日崩溃 1。特朗普随后威胁采取进一步报复措施,包括禁售庞巴迪飞机,并扬言明年实施50%的汽车关税 1。
在此之前,加拿大已在贸易紧张局势中采取行动。该国8个省份已限制或禁止美国酒精销售,致使美国烈酒对加出口同比下跌超过70% 1。特朗普的高压策略反而在加拿大激发了对卡尼的支持 1,后者在达沃斯世界经济论坛的演讲中树立了对抗特朗普政策领导人的形象 1。
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney announced retaliatory tariffs on approximately $20 billion worth of American goods on Tuesday in response to the Trump administration's latest trade actions 1. The tariffs took effect at 12:01 a.m. and were implemented through an order in council 1. The levies, ranging from 15 percent to 50 percent, target hundreds of US products including steel, aluminum, cheese, household appliances, clothing, cosmetics, and agricultural equipment 1. This represents about 6 percent of the roughly $33.6 billion in US exports to Canada from the previous year 1.
The escalating trade dispute has already seen consequences beyond the new tariffs. Eight Canadian provinces have restricted or banned the sale of American alcohol, with US spirits exports to Canada declining more than 70 percent year-over-year 1. President Trump responded to Canada's tariffs by threatening a ban on Bombardier aircraft sales and warning of a 50 percent automotive tariff beginning next year 1. Canada-US trade negotiations collapsed on August 21 1.
