    Trump added a number of Canadian products to the 50% tariff list to offset the tariff relief provided ⁠in his order, including carpets, paints, waste, shampoos, cocoa powder, wooden coffins, ice cream sticks, air-conditioning machines, chest freezers, archery equipment and canoes.

    The headline doesn’t tell the whole story: Trump removed tariffs from same Canadian products, and added tariffs to others. This is strictly to help Collins, not provide any improvement in the US’s relationship with Canada.
