On Wednesday, September 23, from 12 to 1:30 PM, eastern time, the Montreal Economic Institute will be hosting an online webinar on legal challenges to the Trump tariffs against Canada, entitled "Trump Tariffs: How the American Court System Can Help Restore Free Trade in North America." I will be one of the speakers, along with Marc Wheat (general counsel of Advancing American Freedom), and Andrew Hale (economic and trade policy expert at AAF).

Additional information and free registration are available here.

We will, I expect, cover various illegal imposed tariffs against Canada, including the Section 301 tariffs (which I wrote about here), and the Section 338 tariffs (see here and here). I will also discuss how best to avoid such harmful and tariff actions in the future.

I keep trying to find Ilya's speeches on Canadian quotas against American milk, cream, butter, cheese, milk powders, yogurt, buttermilk, whey powder, and ice cream after the first USMCA panel found this inconsistent with Canada’s treaty obligations in December 2021 while Democrat Joe Biden was president.

Canada completely restricted the importation of American fresh fruits and vegetables and alcoholic beverages unless the importer showed that domestic Canadian supply was insufficient.

Free trade and competition do not interest Ilya unless it involves a healthy does of Trump Derangement Syndrome.
