IEEPA border tariffs on Canada (struck down)
25% tariffs on non-USMCA-qualifying Canadian goods (10% on energy and potash), imposed March 2025 over drug-trafficking concerns after a one-month pause. USMCA-originating goods were exempted days after the tariffs took effect. The Supreme Court's February 2026 IEEPA ruling voided the program; paid duties are potentially refundable.

After a year of pauses, extensions, and litigation, the Supreme Court ruled 6–3 on February 20, 2026 that IEEPA does not authorize tariffs, voiding the entire program. Duties already paid — industry estimates run as high as $175 billion — are potentially refundable; the administration replaced part of the program with a Section 122 surcharge the same day.
