Tariffs & Trade · 2025-04-02
Canada routinely charged U.S. dairy products tariffs of 250% to 300%
Misleading
Trump characterized Canada’s high out-of-quota dairy tariffs as if they broadly applied to American dairy exports.
What the evidence shows
Those rates apply only to products imported above specified quotas; they do not describe the ordinary tariff paid on most dairy trade.
