Prime Minister Mark Carney says Canada will match U.S. President Donald Trump's 25% auto tariffs with a tariff on vehicles imported from the United States.

Prime Minister Mark Carney announced Thursday that Canada will impose matching 25% tariffs on vehicles imported from the United States, a direct response to President Trump’s auto tariffs that took effect the same day.
