- President Donald Trump is not imposing his new 10% global tariff rate on goods from Canada and Mexico while his previous order remains in place for up to 25% tariffs on many goods from the two in connection to border control and fentanyl trafficking issues, according to a White House fact sheet released on Wednesday.

"For Canada and Mexico, the existing fentanyl/migration ... orders remain in effect, and are unaffected by this order," the White House fact sheet said.

"This means USMCA (U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement) compliant goods will continue to see a 0% tariff, non-USMCA compliant goods will see a 25% tariff, and non-USMCA compliant energy and potash will see a 10% tariff. In the event the existing fentanyl/migration ... orders are terminated, USMCA compliant goods would continue to receive preferential treatment, while non-USMCA compliant goods would be subject to a 12% reciprocal tariff."
