The United States has imposed an import ban on some products from Canada. The list includes Canadian alcohol and motorbikes, along with other goods. US officials say the move is connected to a wider trade dispute.
At the same time, Canada has started its own counter-tariffs on American goods. In other words, Canada is charging extra taxes to respond to US actions. These measures are now in effect.
This is the latest step in a long trade war between the two countries. It may disrupt supply chains and make it harder for some companies to sell products. Consumers could also face higher costs or fewer options, depending on how quickly businesses adjust.
