President Donald Trump confirmed Monday that his new 25% tariffs on all Canadian and Mexican goods will “go forward” on March 4. The president ordered the new tariffs in early February but delayed their implementation for one month after the Canadian and Mexican governments brokered agreements with the White House regarding border security and fentanyl

President Donald Trump announced that tariffs on Canadian and Mexican imports will take effect next month, ending a suspension that had delayed their implementation.

Canada and Mexico are expected to intensify efforts this week to avoid punishing 25% tariffs on their exports to the U.S. in talks to persuade President Donald Trump's administration that their steps to increase border security and curb fentanyl trafficking are working ahead of a March 4 deadline.
