# Canada’s retaliatory tariffs on 441.17-billion-rand worth of American goods will come into effect today, intensifying the trade war between the longtime allies. The tariffs, which range from 15 to 50-percent follow US president Donald Trump’s 50-percent tariffs he imposed on Canadian goods last month, after trade talks collapsed. The measures will target US sectors including steel, dairy, appliances, agricultural equipment and electronics. Canadian prime minister Mark Carney says any trade agreement must be beneficial for his citizens:
