Those tariffs finally came to pass for Canada, Mexico, and the EU (European Union) on May 31, 2018. Take a look at part of the reasons why the USA did so below. President Trump mentioned Dairy's stiff tariff by Canada in particular:
The Canadian tariffs, which go into effect July 1, cover a broad range of items. Some, mainly unfinished iron and steel products, will be hit with a 25 per cent tariff, while others, including many consumer products, will be tagged with a 10-per-cent duty.
Here is a list of some of the affected products, which run from industrial metal bars to gherkins, whiskey and felt-tipped pens.

- Stainless steel ingots or other primary forms, including semi-finished products, flat-rolled products of stainless steel, bars and rods, angles, shapes and sections, and wire.
