Agenda

Significant shifts occurred in North American trade relations as both Canada and the United States implemented substantial tariffs on each other's goods. These measures have profound implications for businesses operating across the border. This webinar aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of these developments, offering insights and strategic guidance for businesses to navigate the changes effectively, including tariff mitigation strategies. Panelists from McMillan LLP’s international trade team will provide an in-depth look at the tariffs imposed by both Canada and the United States, including the specific products affected and the rationale behind these decisions. They will also discuss actionable strategies for businesses to mitigate the impact of these tariffs, including value for duty strategies, duty remissions, and advocacy opportunities, and identify opportunities within the new trade landscape.
