The Canadian government is extending its tariff relief program beyond U.S. steel imports to help firms dealing with retaliatory duties against the United States. The program's expiration date will now extend until June 30, 2028, and it will cover non-steel goods used in manufacturing, agricultural production, mining, and oil and gas extraction. Additionally, goods used by public education entities, including those mandated by Indigenous organizations, are also eligible for relief. However, Ottawa plans to exclude certain products that can be reliably sourced within Canada, such as specific trailers, aluminum wire, and paperboard products. This extension aims to ease the financial burden on Canadian firms caught in the tariff crossfire since the early days of retaliatory duties against the United States.
