  • Tariffs have become President Donald Trump's favored economic move, and they're set to go into effect against Canada and Mexico next week.

The article from MSN discusses the upcoming changes in tariffs between the U.S., Canada, and Mexico starting next week, as part of the revised trade agreements under the USMCA (United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement). Tariffs, which are taxes imposed on imported goods, are intended to protect domestic industries by making foreign products more expensive. The new tariffs will affect various sectors, potentially increasing costs for consumers on items like automobiles, dairy products, and steel. For U.S. consumers, this might mean higher prices for some goods, but it could also lead to increased domestic production and job opportunities in certain industries. Conversely, Canadian and Mexican exporters might face challenges if their products become less competitive in the U.S. market due to these tariffs. The article also explains that while tariffs can lead to trade disputes, they are also used as leverage in negotiations to secure better trade terms or to address trade imbalances.
