United States President Donald Trump has removed some tariffs he placed on Canadian products this fall.
They are:
· Industrial machinery, plant or equipment for the treatment of materials, by process involving a change in temperature.
· Packing or wrapping machinery.
· Refrigerating or freezing equipment.
· Machines for cleaning, sorting or grading food items.
· Machinery for filling, closing, sealing, capsuling or labeling bottles, cans, boxes or other containers.
· Plywood not over 6mm thick.
· Sacks and bags.
· Nonadhesive plates, sheets, film, foil and strip.
· Bleached paper and paperboard, coated, impregnated or covered with plastics.
· Cartons, boxes and cases of corrugated paper or paperboard.
Susan Collins, the Republican senator from Maine who is in the midst of a tight reelection campaign, issued a press release taking credit for the tariff changes.
