Excluding Certain Canadian Products From Importation Into The United States In Response To Continued Discrimination Against The Commerce Of The United States With Respect To Dairy

A PROCLAMATION

1.  In Proclamation 11047 of July 20, 2026 (Imposing Additional Duties To Offset Canadian Discrimination Against the Commerce of the United States With Respect to Dairy), I found as a fact that Canada is discriminating in fact against the commerce of the United States through Canada’s tariff-rate quota allocation measures imposed on U.S. cheeses of all types; that this discrimination places the commerce of the United States at a disadvantage compared to the commerce of other countries; and that Canada’s imposition is unreasonable, is not equally enforced upon the like articles of every foreign country, and places a burden on the commerce of the United States.  To offset the burden or disadvantage on U.S. commerce from Canada’s discrimination or unreasonable and unequal imposition on U.S. dairy, I imposed under section 338 of the Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1338) (section 338) additional ad valorem duties, effective August 19, 2026, on certain products of Canada.

2.  In Proclamation 11056 of August 18, 2026 (Temporary Suspension of Additional Duties To Offset Canadian Discrimination Against the Commerce of the United States With Respect to Alcoholic Beverages, Dairy, and Motor Vehicles), I temporarily suspended for 3 days the effective date of the additional ad valorem duties imposed under Proclamation 11047 after Canada expressed a commitment to remove the discrimination or unreasonable and unequal imposition at issue in Proclamation 11047.

3.  On August 21, 2026, Canada reneged on its commitment, ceased negotiating in good faith, and did not remove the discrimination or unreasonable and unequal imposition at issue in Proclamation 11047.
