Canada has extended its horizontal remission for US tariffs by one year while removing relief for certain goods produced at home.
Canada’s Department of Finance has extended the horizontal remission for US tariffs by one year to 30 June 2028, Finance Minister François-Philippe Champagne announced on 9 November 2026.
The relief will now also cover non-steel goods used in mining, quarrying, or the extraction of oil and gas, as well as all goods used by public education entities, including those mandated by Indigenous organisations.
Relief will be removed for certain goods identified as having domestic production: trailers from 1 December 2026, and aluminium wire and extrusions and paperboard products from 1 February 2027. The lead time will allow importers to adjust their supply chains or seek case-by-case remission.
The government will also grant targeted relief for certain imported goods in short supply and for companies facing exceptional circumstances, such as pre-existing contractual obligations. Detailed product schedules will be published on the Department of Finance’s website and incorporated by reference into the Order.
