President Trump said he would impose reciprocal tariffs on Canada on Friday or next week, much sooner than the April 2 start date he previously announced.

The president signed executive orders today offering a monthlong exemption, until April 2, for all goods covered under the U.S.-Mexico-Canada trade agreement, which includes most U.S. imports from those countries. About 10 percent of Mexico’s exports to the U.S. fall outside the U.S.M.C.A. trade agreement, according to one economist.
