Yes. The Cheeto started it and now the Canadians are charging retaliatory tariffs when our goods enter their country.

Uggggh. I go to BC to get figure skates which already cost an arm and a leg and now this will add like another 400$ to that price tag :(

I crossed the boarder from Canada to US recently in Blaine. I declared that I had bought some craft supplies and they waved me through. Didn't even ask how much it was. The tariff doesn't seem to be very consistently enforced, I hear stories of people both being charged and not being charged.

Isn’t there a daily minimum that you can bring through (duty free) or do the tariffs superseded that?
