Canada unveiled the Productivity Mega Deduction: businesses can write off the full cost of far more equipment in year one (vehicles, computers, software included), and immediate expensing is now permanent. Weighing a new van or gear? Timing just got better. 🇨🇦 #SmallBusiness

Terry Fox's $5 bill will be released after the $20 bill, which will be released in early 2027. I would say probably the 2nd- 3rd quarter of 2027.

The two economies are deeply integrated. In 2025, the US imported about $382 billion in goods from Canada and exported roughly $334 billion; total goods-and-services trade reached nearly $880 billion. Canada sent 72% of its goods exports to the US and sourced 46% of its goods imports from there. Energy (especially Canadian crude oil, now ~64% of US imports by volume), autos, industrial supplies, and machinery dominate the relationship. The US and Canada are in an active tariff escalation as of early September 2026. USMCA remains in force but was not extended in the July 2026 review, so it now faces annual reviews until a possible 2036 expiry. Most compliant goods still receive preferential treatment under the agreement, but layered presidential tariffs have raised effective rates and created uncertainty. Canada’s new counter-tariffs take effect September 8.

Economic Impacts on the United States. The US impact is smaller in relative terms. Canada accounts for a large but not dominant share of US trade, and the newest 50% tariffs cover only ~5% of US goods imports from Canada. Broader existing tariffs have already raised some input costs (steel, aluminum, autos). Analyses suggest limited additional inflation pressure from the latest round because of the narrow product scope, though US households have already faced higher prices from earlier 2025 measures. US exporters of steel, aluminum, dairy, appliances, agricultural equipment, electronics, furniture, and apparel face Canada’s matching tariffs and potential market share loss. Integrated auto and energy supply chains mean higher costs and possible production shifts. A complete USMCA collapse would be more damaging—Oxford Economics projects US GDP losses in the hundreds of billions and over 200,000 jobs versus a successful deal. US consumers of Canadian lumber, paper, furniture, and certain foods/beverages will pay more. Energy and potash flows have been largely shielded so far.

Broader ImplicationsSupply-chain integration means tariffs raise costs on both sides even when they appear targeted. Uncertainty from annual USMCA reviews and the possibility of further escalation or de-escalation complicates investment. Canada is pushing diversification and domestic substitution; the US is using tariffs as leverage for changes in dairy, autos, and perceived imbalances. Political tensions have risen, with public boycotts and rhetoric on both sides.The relationship remains one of the world’s largest and most complementary. Energy security, auto production, and critical minerals continue to bind the two countries even as tariffs fragment other sectors. Outcomes will depend on whether talks resume and whether USMCA rules of origin and exemptions survive further reviews. Both sides have signaled willingness to negotiate, but the September 8 Canadian measures and existing US duties keep pressure high.
