New 25% trade tariffs on goods from Canada and Mexico went into effect early Tuesday after President Donald Trump declined to extend a 30-day pause in a move the president says aims to quell the flow of illegal drugs like fentanyl into the U.S. The new assessments also include a 10% tariff on Canadian energy products.

President Donald Trump's tariffs on Canada and Mexico "are an attempt to stop the bleeding" in the U.S. economy, United Auto Workers President Shawn Fain said.
