The U.S. is set to slap 50% tariffs on Canadian goods—including honey, liquor, cement, and hockey sticks—starting August 19th, sparking economic alarm. Economists warn this could slow Canada’s growth by 0.2–0.3% and chill business investment, hitting small firms hardest.

Experts urge caution, warning against retaliatory steps that could spiral into a costly trade war.
