Canada’s Carney Puts Tariffs on U.S.-Made Cars as Stellantis Plant Pauses Production

Prime Minister Mark Carney said that Canada had introduced a 25 percent tariff on cars and trucks made in the United States in retaliation for the tariffs that went into effect Thursday morning on Canadian vehicles.
Hours before the tariffs imposed by President Trump took effect, the automaker Stellantis told the union representing about 3,600 workers at its minivan and muscle car factory in Windsor, Ontario, that the plant would close on Monday for two weeks so it could assess the effects of the tariffs.
