More from this show

President Donald Trump threatened to increase tariffs on Canada starting next year after unsuccessful trade talks between the countries. The proposed 50% tariff would apply to all cars, trucks, car parts and steel from Canada starting on January 1, 2027.

John von Heyking, Associate Director of the School of Civic and Economic Thought and Leadership at ASU, joined “Arizona Horizon” to discuss the two countries growing tensions and how these tariffs will affect once-strong allies.
