The U.S. House of Representatives passed a resolution against President Donald Trump's tariffs on Canadian goods, delivering a stinging rebuke to the administration for launching a trade war on its northern neighbour.
The House voted 219-211 in favour of a resolution seeking to terminate the national emergency that Trump invoked in February 2025 to empower his tariffs on a range of imports from Canada.
Six Republicans defied the White House and joined the Democrats in voting for the measure.
Trump's emergency declaration — that Canada's "failure" to address cross-border fentanyl trafficking created an "unusual and extraordinary threat" to U.S. national security — underpins the 35 per cent tariffs currently imposed on a range of Canadian goods that don't qualify for exemption under the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement (CUSMA).
Congress has the authority to review presidential declarations of emergencies. But even if the resolution is also approved by a simple majority in the Senate, Trump retains veto power to keep the emergency declaration and the tariffs in place.
However, losing the House vote is a politically symbolic blow to the president, who has made tariffs the cornerstone economic policy of his second term.

Just as the vote was closing, Trump lashed out at the rebel Republicans in a social media post.
"Any Republican, in the House or the Senate, that votes against TARIFFS will seriously suffer the consequences come Election time, and that includes Primaries!" Trump wrote.
He said tariffs "have given us Economic and National Security, and no Republican should be responsible for destroying this privilege."

估计Trump不会轻易妥协
