  • As of Monday, March 10, a Canadian plan to raise electricity costs by 25% went into effect in response to Trump's tariffs, effective March 4. The electricity is sold to 1.5 million Americans, the Associated Press reported.

The article from MLive discusses Canada's potential response to former President Donald Trump's proposed tariffs on Canadian lumber and other goods. If Trump were to win the 2024 election and impose these tariffs, Canada might retaliate by raising electricity costs for Americans living near the border. This measure would primarily affect residents in states like Michigan, New York, and Vermont, where cross-border electricity trade is significant. The article invites readers to share their opinions on this potential economic retaliation, exploring the implications for cross-border relations, economic impacts, and the broader political context of U.S.-Canada trade relations.
