WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump is expected to announce new tariffs against Canada and Mexico that will begin on March 1, but will include a process for the countries to seek specific exemptions for certain imports, three people familiar with the planning told Reuters.

President Donald Trump said this week that tariffs on U.S. neighbors Canada and Mexico will arrive Saturday. The two nations are not only close geographically, but economically as well.

President Donald Trump confirmed Thursday that he’s planning to levy a 25% tariff on imports from Mexico and Canada starting Saturday—with broader import taxes potentially soon following—reflecting his campaign promises to implement high tariffs, against the views of many economists who believe Trump’s plan would burden everyday consumers.

ABC 10News reporter Olivia González-Britt explains how San Diego County is bracing for new tariffs on Mexico. Kennedy pledged that he would ‘never stick on a point if somebody shows [him] data that says [he’s] wrong’ About 795,000 Americans will have a stroke this year.

US President Donald Trump has said he will follow through with his threat to hit imports from Canada and Mexico with 25% border taxes, known as tariffs, on 1 February. But he added that a decision about whether this would include oil from those countries has not yet been made.

TORONTO — Roughly $900 billion in annual trade between Canada and the United States — and, with it, traditionally chummy bilateral ties — is on the brink of upheaval, with President Donald Trump threatening to impose sweeping tariffs on Canada as early as this weekend.

The president reiterated that tariffs are coming, even as his advisers are considering several offramps to avoid enacting universal tariffs on Mexico and Canada, people familiar with the matter say.
