Vehicle buyers in Canada are trying to beat the price hikes of a trade war, as the government of Prime Minister Mark Carney prepares to strike back against the latest fusillade of import taxes from the White House.

While President Trump called Wednesday's impending tariffs announcement a "liberation day" for the nation, American consumers hold their breath to see how expensive good will become.

What Trump ultimately decides to announce on tariffs will be “effective immediately,” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said Tuesday. That is logistically dubious, but if that is the case, other nations would have little time to negotiate and could respond by immediately imposing countermeasures such as retaliatory tariffs.

Canada says export tariffs will go into effect tomorrow in response to the Trump administration's policies on the country's goods. The threatened policy would upend decades of free trade between the countries.

President Trump will unveil new tariffs Wednesday, raising concerns among economists and prompting Senate Democrats to push for a vote to reverse tariffs on Canada.
