President Donald Trump has pushed into new trade law territory with an emergency sanctions law to justify punishing 25% tariffs on Canadian and Mexican imports and an extra 10% duty on Chinese goods to curb fentanyl and illegal immigration into the U.

The president is also considering hefty new tariffs on the European Union and on specific goods, such as oil and gas, at a later date.

American importers will pay a new 25-percent tax on goods from Canada and Mexico and a 10-percent levy on products from China, the president said.
