Canada still has some high tariffs for US goods, and they did it before this started.

Why we checked itSpecific claim that Canada imposed high tariffs on US goods prior to the current tariff dispute — verifiable against trade data and timeline of US-Canada tariff actions.
What we foundCanada does have high over-quota tariff rates on some goods (notably dairy, poultry, and eggs) that predate the current trade dispute, but these tariffs were never actually applied to U.S. goods since quota thresholds were never exceeded, making the claim partially accurate but misleading in its characterization.
