Donald Trump announced that a round of tariffs were coming for Canadians over the weekend .

Niagara Falls Mayor Jim Diodati said it was like a "punch in the gut" for his constituents.

Sault Ste . Marie , Ont ., mayor said there is a "sense of betrayal" in border communities.

Sarnia, Ontario , and Fort Erie , Ontario also have a border crossing.

The tariffs are large enough that they cannot be absorbed by the exporter or the importer, so will have to be passed on to US and Canadian customers.

Up in Sault Ste . Marie , the largest employer is Algoma Steel , which sends most of its product to the U.S. A downturn in steel production would ripple across these industries, leading to financial hardship for families.
