About the author

On the first point, I’ve seen surprisingly little discussion of the legal basis for these tariffs. U.S. law gives the president a lot of discretion to impose tariffs without prior legislative approval, but the process is still supposed to be constrained by rules. There are, or are supposed to be, specific situations in which the president is allowed to impose tariffs, beyond “he feels like it.”

So these tariffs are being justified under Section 232 (of what? never mind), defense of national security. For Canada and Mexico, this is bitterly ironic. As Joey Politano points out, substantial production has been shifted from Asia to our near neighbors because nobody seriously considers importing manufactured goods from Mexico, let alone Canada, a threat to national security.
