AI disclosure

Summary

The trade war between Washington and Ottawa is once again escalating. On Saturday, the US implemented 50% tariffs on certain Canadian goods, just hours after Donald Trump claimed he had a good relationship with his Canadian counterpart and that he thought a deal could be reached. The tariffs were initially set to go into effect on Wednesday but the US president gave negotiators three days to reach an agreement. Details by Eliza Herbert.
