  • Canadians have canceled trips south of the border, boycotted U.S. alcohol and other products and even booed at sporting events after U.S. President Donald Trump announced 25% tariffs on most of Canada's goods on Saturday.

The article from Reuters discusses the backlash in Canada following the U.S. decision to impose a 10% tariff on Canadian aluminum, announced by President Joe Biden. In response, some Canadians are boycotting American products, including alcohol, and canceling trips to the U.S. This reaction stems from frustration over the tariffs, which are seen as a continuation of trade disputes initiated during the Trump administration. The tariffs have led to calls for retaliation, with suggestions including targeting U.S. products like bourbon and orange juice. The Canadian government has expressed disappointment, and there's a growing sentiment among Canadians to support local products and reconsider travel plans to the U.S. as a form of protest against the economic measures.
