Trump was quoted saying his team was thinking of tariffs around 25% which could be announced on Feb. 1 but offered no other specifics.

Trump pledged in his inaugural address that tariffs would be coming in a speech in which he promised a golden era for America. He later said Canada and Mexico could be hit with the tariffs as soon as Feb. 1, though he signed an executive order requesting a report coordinated by the Secretary of Commerce by April. 1.

Speaking from the Oval Office Monday evening, Trump said, “We are thinking in terms of 25 per cent tariffs on Canada and Mexico. I think we will do it Feb. 1.”
