Imposing Additional Duties To Offset Canadian Discrimination Against the Commerce of the United States With Respect to Alcoholic Beverages
This proclamation imposes an additional 50 percent ad valorem duty on certain Canadian products, effective August 19, 2026, using Section 338 of the Tariff Act of 1930. The action is framed as retaliation for Canadian provincial and territorial bans on U.S. alcoholic beverages that began in March 2025, which caused U.S. alcohol exports to Canada to drop approximately 81 percent.
Imposing Additional Duties To Offset Canadian Discrimination Against the Commerce of the United States With Respect to Dairy
This proclamation imposes an additional 50 percent ad valorem duty on certain Canadian products, effective August 19, 2026, to offset Canada's discriminatory dairy tariff-rate quota allocation measures under USMCA that favor EU cheese exporters over U.S. exporters.

Saving TikTok While Protecting National Security
This executive order determines that a proposed divestiture of TikTok's U.S. operations qualifies under the Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act, creating a new U.S.-based joint venture with less than 20% foreign ownership.
