U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said on Aug. 21 that new tariffs on Canadian imports will take effect as the two nations have failed to reach a trade deal.
“Tonight, Canada declined to finalize the trade deal under the terms agreed earlier this week,” Greer said in a statement.
Greer said the new 50 percent tariffs on Canadian imports will take effect on Aug. 22 at 12:01 a.m. ET.
This is a breaking story and will be updated.
