President Trump modified which Canadian products are subject to additional 50 percent duties imposed to offset discrimination against U.S. motor vehicle commerce on October 23, 2026.

Proclamation 11048 of July 20, 2026 imposed additional ad valorem duties on certain products of Canada to offset the burden on U.S. commerce from Canada’s motor vehicle tariff scheme.

It was set to take effect August 19, 2026.

Proclamation 11056 of August 18, 2026 temporarily suspended the effective date of the duties for 3 days after Canada expressed a commitment to remove the discrimination.

On August 21, 2026, Canada reneged on the commitment, ceased negotiating in good faith, and did not remove the discrimination.

The suspension lapsed at 12:01 a.m. eastern time on August 22, 2026, and the duties became effective.

Modifying the scope of products subject to the duties would still offset the burden on U.S. commerce and better serve the public interest.

The proclamation removes certain products of Canada in Annex I, Part A from the additional ad valorem duty of 50 percent.

Certain products of Canada in Annex I, Part B are subject to the additional ad valorem duty of 50 percent.
