Ottawa’s Finance Department yesterday published the list of products from the U.S. that will attract retaliatory 25 percent tariffs. This is a preliminary list of about $30 billion worth of U.S. imports. About $125 billion of tariffs, in addition to those on this list, are scheduled by the Canadian government for Feb. 25. The U.S. products hit immediately consist of a huge amount of imports into Canadian home improvement stores.
They include: hand and power tools and accessories, sinks and baths, appliances, sawn wood, plywood and OSB, wood flooring, shakes and shingles, carpet, furniture, range hoods, pumps, padlocks, light fittings, water heaters, and more.
