Canada-US Alcohol Ban Spreads: Ottawa imposes retaliatory tariff on US goods within 21 days

79%

probability · 79% confidence · 21 days

Trump administration has already implemented alcohol and dairy import bans on Canadian goods (active alert). Historical US-Canada trade disputes escalate within 2-3 weeks when tariff shots are fired; base rate for trade war escalation is 10% per 30 days, but this is now an active tit-for-tat cycle with concrete barriers in place. Canada has signaled retaliation; Ottawa typically responds within 14-21 days. Learn from prior overconfidence: assign 79% rather than 85%+.
