  • The goods hit first by Trump's tariffs on Mexico, Canada and China - Imports from Canada and Mexico will be taxed at 25 percent while levies on Chinese products will increase to 20 percent

The article from MSN discusses the initial impact of tariffs imposed by former U.S. President Donald Trump on goods from Mexico, Canada, and China.
