From Toronto: A trade war is escalating. Retaliatory measures are now in place, affecting a significant amount of US goods. The value of these goods is substantial, around $20 billion.

Economic reliance on one country is a concern for Canada's government. They aim to reduce this reliance, particularly with the US.

Further details on this situation, including the government's plan, are available from the source. The trade tensions began after tariffs were imposed on certain goods, despite previous agreements.
