Imposing Duties on Canadian Imports: Executive Order to Combat Illicit Drug Flow
This executive order, issued by President Trump on February 1, 2025, declares a national emergency due to the influx of illicit drugs, primarily fentanyl, from Canada. It cites Canada's insufficient cooperation in combating drug trafficking as a significant threat to U.S. national security and public health. To address this, the order imposes a 25% ad valorem tariff on most Canadian goods, with a 10% tariff on energy resources, effective February 4, 2025. The order also details reporting requirements to Congress and outlines conditions under which the tariffs may be removed or modified. Finally, it emphasizes the President's commitment to securing the nation's borders.
