The Green Mountain State's small businesses are getting caught in the tariff crossfire between the United States and Canada.

The article from MSN discusses the adverse effects of former President Donald Trump's tariffs on Canadian goods, which are significantly impacting small businesses in Vermont.

The ongoing trade tensions have not only strained cross-border relationships but also threaten the economic stability of these small enterprises, with some owners expressing frustration over the lack of resolution and the potential long-term damage to their operations.
