@dailymail: The United States banned a broad swath of Canadian alcoholic beverages, motorcycles and dairy products from import, sharply escalating an already acrimonious trade war. The import bans, which go into effect on September 29, came after Canada's own retaliatory tariffs on U.S. goods took effect after midnight on Tuesday. Those Canadian levies themselves followed 50% tariffs that the United States imposed on some $20 billion of Canadian goods last month, after several rounds of negotiations collapsed. The breakdown has widened a rift between the longtime allies, who have blamed each other for the failed talks. #canada #usa #news
