Trump is set to impose “reciprocal” tariffs on foreign trading partners starting April 2 .

He has made clear that will include Canadian dairy, in response to what he says are Canadian tariffs of at least 250 per cent.

Canada does charge high tariffs on dairy exporters that exceed certain quantities set under free trade rules.

Dairy Farmers of Canada : Increased U.S. access came at a direct cost to Canadian dairy farmers.

The federal government announced in 2019 that it would provide $1.75 billion over eight years to dairy producers impacted by the changes to market access.

The U.N. has continued to accuse Canada of intentionally “bottlenecking” American dairy exports to give the Canadian market an unfair advantage.
