Every day more than $4 billion worth of goods cross the United States' borders with Canada and Mexico-U.S. auto parts headed for car factories in northern Mexico, cartons of Mexican avocados bound for California supermarkets, Canadian aluminum destined to become cans of Campbell Soup. Much of this bustling cross-border commerce is duty-free, thanks to the US-Mexico-Canada Agreement, or USMCA, that President Donald Trump negotiated with America's northern and southern neighbors during his first term.
Porter complained about difficulties when trying to insert lines in Excel. (Which, to be fair to Microsoft, is relatively straightforward - need to insert a row? Right-click on a selected row. Need to insert a line in text? Alt+Return is probably going to be your friend.) But then Porter turned to that other productivity stalwart, Word. "Never underestimate Microsoft's ability to make things more complicated," he said.
Sales are down nearly 70 percent at Jahn Engineering, a tool and die shop that serves automakers here and in the United States. Dozens of workers have been let go following decisions made in the White House. The Canadian auto industry has been rocked by President Donald Trump's abandonment of subsidies for electric vehicles and embrace of tariffs.
Automakers are facing billions of dollars in additional costs from Trump's tariffs, particularly those levied on imported autos and car parts. Those tariffs, as well as levies targeting steel and aluminum, were implemented under a law that gives the president authority to impose import taxes on national security grounds. The duties were unaffected by the Supreme Court's ruling that struck down Trump's broader import taxes imposed on many countries.

As the Detroit Three automakers have made fewer cars in Canada over the past decade, Japanese car makers have kept their Canadian footprint consistent, according to a new report. The findings by the Trillium Network for Advanced Manufacturing, a non-profit think-tank at Western University that analyzes manufacturing in Ontario, show a decline in the overall number of cars made in Canada compared to a decade ago. In 2016, 2.3 million cars were assembled in the country; by 2025, that figure fell to 1.2 million.
