Trump Warns of Fresh Tariffs on Canada Amid Cross-Border Wildfire Smoke
US President Donald Trump has warned he may impose fresh tariffs on Canada, holding the country responsible for smoke from hundreds of wildfires that has drifted into the United States.
He charged Canada with “willful negligence” in how it manages its forests. Ontario Premier Doug Ford answered by asking Washington to send firefighting help rather than rebuke.
Canada is now fighting roughly 888 active wildfires, many of them uncontrolled, among them more than 190 in Ontario. The tariff warning deepens existing strains between the two nations on trade, climate policy, and diplomacy.
