What's getting more expensive? Here's the full list of US products hit with Canadian tariffs

After a 30-day pause on proposed tariffs, the North American trade war is back on, and Canada isn't holding back.

As of today, March 4, 2025, U.S. President Donald Trump has officially imposed a 25% tariff on Canadian exports and a 10% tariff on Canadian energy. North of the border, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has made it clear that Canada won't take this sitting down.

"Canadians are reasonable, but we will not back down from a fight," he wrote in an X post on Monday morning.

The Prime Minister later revealed details of counter-tariffs on $30 billion worth of U.S. products, announcing plans to slap an additional $125 billion in tariffs over the next three weeks if the situation escalates.

The list of affected goods isn't random, though. It's designed to put economic pressure on American industries while trying to soften the impact on Canadians.

That said, everyday essentials like groceries, household goods, and vehicles will be affected, meaning you could soon see higher prices at checkout counters.

Here's an extensive list of goods that will likely see price surges.
