Trump threatens 35% tariffs on Canadian goods starting Aug. 1
July 10, 2025
U.S. President Donald Trump said he would impose 35 per cent tariffs on Canada starting Aug. 1, upping pressure on Ottawa as it seeks to secure a deal with the U.S.
In a letter posted on his social media site Truth Social on Thursday evening, Mr. Trump said he would increase the tariffs that were imposed in February and currently stand at 25 per cent. Mr. Trump ostensibly imposed the levies to push Canada to do more to address U.S. complaints about fentanyl trafficking.

From its earliest days, the Avon River has been the heart of the community of Stratford, Ont. The centrepiece of the river, known as Lake Victoria, was created in the 1830s as a millpond for industry. The parks board later convinced the city to invest in horse-drawn scoops to dredge the lake. Locals warded off railroad proposals along the shorelines, where roses from Queen Mary were planted. A pair of swans from Queen Elizabeth arrived in 1967.
