Persistent Trump tariffs mean a minus 5% hit to Canada’s economy, Mexico -8%, US -1%

Analysts at US-based investment bank Piper Sandler with the estimated negative hits to economies over a year of Trump’s tariffs:

  • Canada economic growth (GDP) sees a minus 5% hit
  • Mexico’s GDP a minus 8%
  • US economy a minus 1%

Senior Republican Senator Mitch McConnell spoke with US TV show ’60 Minutes’:

  • says he objects to tariffs pushed by Trump
  • “It’ll be
    paid for by American consumers. I mean why would you want to get in a
    fight with your allies over this?”

The art of the deal is a win-win. There are no winners here.
