A trade war is escalating with the US banning certain imports from Canada. The ban includes some dairy products, motorcycles, and most alcoholic beverages. This move is in response to retaliatory tariffs imposed by Canada on $20 billion in US imports. The tariffs were a response to earlier tariff moves by the US President.

The ban is set to take effect on September 29. The US has also taken steps to exclude Canadian products from large government contracts. Further details on the trade war and its implications are available.

The situation follows the breakdown of trade talks between the two countries last month, with tensions showing little sign of easing.
