Canada’s retaliating with steep tariffs on American goods — from seafood to toilet paper, some hitting 50% — as tensions flare before U.S. midterm elections, threatening one of the world’s largest trade relationships.

President Trump doubled down, demanding Canada “fall in line” or face worse, even jokingly suggesting renaming Lake Ontario “Lake America.” Canada’s response includes a $7.5 billion support package for affected businesses and workers, framing the move as economic defense — not profit — despite knowing it’ll raise prices for consumers.
