Canada levied a range of tariffs on U.S. goods Tuesday,
escalating an ongoing trade war launched by President Donald
Trump. It isn’t the first time the two countries have tiffed over
trade, but it is, by at least one historian’s estimation,
unprecedented. In this episode, we trace the neighboring nations’
historic partnership, and weigh what’s next. Plus: Small business
owners report mixed economic outlook, ChatGPT recommends a
made-up deodorant brand, and Monterey Park, California, models
community-led data center resistance.
