The Trump administration's threatened 50% tariffs on some popular Canadian goods went into effect Saturday morning after trade talks with its northern ally fell apart the night before.
President Donald Trump first announced the new round of tariffs last month to "offset Canadian discrimination" against American cars, dairy, and alcohol.
US and Canadian officials had been working on a deal to avoid the tariffs all week.
Trump said in a Truth Social post earlier in the week that the deal was close.
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, however, announced in a statement released just before midnight on Friday that he was suspending trade negotiations after he said the United States proposed "last-minute changes" that were "unfair." "We have recognized from the beginning that America has changed, and that we will not return to our old relationship," Carney wrote.
The new tariffs are the latest in the ongoing trade dispute between Canada and the United States.
Trump first ordered new tariffs on Canadian goods in early 2025, to which Canada responded with retaliatory tariffs of its own.
The latest tariffs, which took effect at 12:01 a.m. on Saturday, would apply to a wide range of goods, from beer, wine, and spirits to milk products and hockey equipment.
Here are the popular Canadian goods that could be affected.
