Captain Canuck to save the comic industry? Canada has announced that it is taking legal action challenging the 25% tariff imposed by President Trump and the United States impacting most Canadian goods. The tariffs are being called “illegal and unjustified.”

On Saturday, President Trump announced a 25% tariff on goods imported from Canada and Mexico and 10% tariff on goods from China. In response Canada announced a two phased tariff of 25% on American goods imported in response.

Canada’s initial wave of what’s being tariffed includes 1,256 items expected to cause an impact on the American economy and companies. It includes food and drink, automotive parts, clothing, cosmetics, luggage, furniture, tobacco, lumber, paper, and more.

It does not look like comic books or tabletop games are part of Canada’s initial items to be tariffed this week but a longer, second list will be released in a few days.
