The White House says the United States is lifting tariffs on some goods from Canada, signalling a limited easing of trade measures between the two countries.
Republican Senator Susan Collins said she had been working with the White House to secure tariff relief. Collins is in a closely contested race to retain her Senate seat in next month’s elections.
No further details were provided in the supplied material about which Canadian goods are covered, when the change will take effect or how the decision will affect wider US-Canada trade. The latest position is that the tariff relief applies to some Canadian goods, with Collins highlighting her involvement in discussions with the White House.
