Canada ready to ‘intensify’ trade talks as Trump reportedly prepares to hit more countries with new tariffs

President Donald ⁠Trump is poised to unleash fresh ⁠tariffs on ⁠dozens ​of countries as soon as ⁠this week, the Financial Times reported on ⁠Tuesday, with his temporary ​10% global ‌tariff ‌scheduled to expire on ‌Friday.

The FT said the most immediate new duties are expected to be on a ‌par with the 10% tariffs currently ​in place, but the administration was also working on other ⁠investigations that could grant ​it the ​legal authority ​to propose ​higher ‌duties.

Reuters could ​not ​immediately verify the report.
