一名加拿大政府高级官员告诉美国广播公司新闻,加拿大周二宣布对数百种美国产品征收高达50%的报复性关税,包括一些钢铁和铝产品、家具和服装。
这些关税将于9月8日生效,将加剧周末爆发的贸易战,此前官方谈判破裂,新一轮美国关税开始生效。
“这是加拿大面临的前所未有的挑战,但加拿大将迎接这一时刻,”加拿大财政部长弗朗索瓦-菲利普·香槟(Fran ois-Philippe Champagne)周二在安大略省渥太华举行的新闻发布会上表示。
香槟表示,加拿大的关税将与美国的关税“一美元一美元,一种比率一种比率”相匹配,并补充说,报复性措施将针对价值276亿美元的美国商品。据统计,这一数字约占美国对加拿大出口总额的8%美国人口调查局2025年的数据。
这位高级官员补充说,加拿大的关税将集中在美国征税的许多产品上,其中包括纸张和乳制品。
此前,美国总统唐纳德·特朗普(Donald Trump)周一在一篇社交媒体帖子中表示,他将在1月份提高加拿大制造的汽车和汽车零部件的关税。
加拿大和美国之间的谈判在周末破裂,美国对一些加拿大商品征收的新一轮50%的关税于周六生效,促使加拿大誓言以自己的征税进行报复。
特朗普的最新公告承诺,从2027年1月1日起,将加拿大汽车和汽车零部件的关税从25%提高一倍至50%。根据总统的说法,提高的税收也将适用于钢铁和卡车。
“在贸易和其他方面,他们也是世界上最难打交道的国家之一,”特朗普周一在社交媒体平台上表示。“他们觉得自己有权,然而,我们不需要加拿大,他们需要我们!”
特朗普没有提供他选择将关税推迟到1月份的理由。
2026年上半年,美国出口1758亿美元根据美国人口普查局(Census Bureau)的数据,对加拿大(仅次于墨西哥的第二大出口贸易伙伴)的商品占美国全部出口的14%。
在加拿大总理马克·卡尼对美国的贸易谈判方式发表激烈言论几天后,尖锐的批评就出现了。他说,在美国谈判代表提出不利于加拿大的要求后,谈判破裂了。
“他们要求太多,提供太少,”卡尼在周六的新闻发布会上说。
卡尼指出,症结之一是美国对汽车关税水平的改变,他声称随着时间的推移,这将损害加拿大的经济。
他批评特朗普政府,称其“将经济一体化作为武器”。
Canada announces retaliatory tariffs up to 50% against US
Canada on Tuesday announced retaliatory tariffs as high as 50% on hundreds of United States products, including some steel and aluminum goods, furniture and clothing, a senior Canadian government official told ABC News.
The levies, which take effect on Sept. 8, are set to escalate a trade war that erupted over the weekend after official negotiations collapsed and a fresh round of U.S. levies took hold.
"This is an unprecedented challenge imposed on Canada, but Canada will meet the moment," Canadian Finance Minister François-Philippe Champagne said at a press conference in Ottawa, Ontario, on Tuesday.
Canada's levies will match U.S. tariffs "dollar for dollar, rate for rate," Champagne said, adding that the retaliatory measure would target $27.6 billion worth of U.S. goods. That figure amounts to about 8% of total U.S. exports to Canada, according toU.S. Census Bureaudata for 2025.
The Canadian tariffs will focus on many products included in U.S. levies, among them paper and dairy, the senior official added.
The move comes after President Donald Trump on Monday said in a social media post that he will ratchet up tariffs on Canada-made cars and auto parts in January.
Negotiations between Canada and the U.S. broke down over the weekend and a fresh round of 50% U.S. tariffs on some Canadian goods took effect on Saturday, prompting a vow from Canada to retaliate with a set of its own levies.
The latest announcement from Trump promised to double tariffs from 25% to 50% on Canadian cars and auto parts starting on Jan. 1, 2027. The elevated levy will also apply to steel and trucks, according to the president.
"On Trade, and in other ways, also, they are among the worst Nations in the World to deal with," Trump said his social media platform on Monday. "They feel entitled, and yet, WE DON’T NEED CANADA, THEY NEED US!"
Trump did not provide a reason for his choice to delay the tariffs until January.
In the first half of 2026, the U.S.exported $175.8 billionin goods to Canada -- the second biggest export trading partner after Mexico -- accounting for 14% of all U.S. exports, according to the Census Bureau.
The sharp criticism arrived days after Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney issued blistering remarks about the U.S. approach to trade negotiations. He said talks broke down after American negotiators made requests that were unfavorable to Canada.
"They asked too much and offered too little," Carney said at a Saturday press conference.
Carney noted that one of the sticking points was changes by the U.S. over its levels of tariffs on automobiles that he claimed would have hurt Canada's economy over time.
He criticized the Trump administration, saying it "uses economic integration as a weapon."
