New tariffs on Canadian goods may raise prices in New Hampshire
New tariffs on Canadian goods announced by President Donald Trump could raise prices on various products in New Hampshire, including paper goods, alcohol, dairy, and hockey equipment. The levies affect paper products like parchment paper, cups, and plates, as well as wine, beer, and spirits. Dairy imports, totaling $780 million from Canada last year, are also impacted, potentially increasing costs for consumers. Hockey equipment prices may rise as the season approaches, with some Canadian companies shipping gear from Asian manufacturers. CSG Hockey owner Zac Guercia is buying extra sticks before tariffs take effect, citing past difficulties with similar measures. The administration says tariffs target unfair Canadian trade practices.
