Trump to institute tariffs on Mexico, Canada and China Saturday: White House

By Michael Hernandez

WASHINGTON (AA) - US President Donald Trump will impose new tariffs on Canada, Mexico and China this weekend, the White House said Friday, bucking media reports that the timeline had been delayed.

The tariffs will take effect on Saturday, including a 25% import duty on all goods from Canada and Mexico, as well as a 10% penalty on imports from China, which spokesperson Karoline Leavitt said is being imposed "for the illegal fentanyl that they have sourced and allowed to distribute into our country."

"These are promises made and promises kept," she added.
