How were Donald Trump's tariffs calculated?

President Donald Trump announced a 10% tariff on nearly all countries, effective April 5, 2025, due to an 'economic emergency' declared by his administration.
Certain countries, including China, will face even higher tariffs due to being labeled 'worst offenders' in trade practices by Trump.
Countries already facing U.S. Sanctions, such as Russia and Iran, will not be affected by the new 10% tariff.
Economists warn that these tariffs may lead to increased prices for imports, potentially harming the economy due to inflationary pressures.

LETTER: Federal election not about Trump

Tariffs bedamned, our election is not about Trump; it’s about the dismal state of a limping, divided Canada in chaos and how we got here under a government that espoused our essence as “having no mainstream core identity” and declaring us to be “a post-national state.” That we now find ourselves with a weak economy vulnerable to Trump’s nonsensical tariffs is a product of that Liberal ideology and the suffocating policies that came along with it.
