If you’re looking for a new set of golf clubs, they may soon be 25% more expensive, as Canadian Finance Minister Dominic LeBlanc has announced a 25% reciprocal tariff on $29.8 billion of U.S. imports, effective March 13, 2025. As the largest foreign supplier of steel and aluminum to the U.S., Canada is responding to existing tariffs with this measure, which includes $12.6 billion in steel, $3 billion in aluminum, and $14.2 billion in other goods such as computers and sports equipment, including golf products.

This strategic move aims to protect Canadian industries and promote fair trade practices. As the two nations navigate these changes, businesses will need to adapt their supply chains and strategies in light of the evolving trade landscape.

For questions regarding Canada and Mexico tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), expert Scott Lincicome is available.

For questions related to China tariffs (Section 301/IEEPA) or Steel and Aluminum tariffs (Section 232), expert Clark Packard is available.
