Canada Imposes 25-50% Tariffs On US Toilet Paper, Tissue

Finance Canada's new counter-tariff list takes effect September 8, adding toilet paper to its retaliation roster.

  • Finance Canada published the counter-tariff list on August 25, 2026, covering US paper goods.
  • Duties on toilet paper and tissue products range from 25% to 50% under the new list.
  • Procter & Gamble, which makes Charmin, said it will raise prices once tariffs take hold.

Why it matters: A trade dispute between two governments becomes a grocery bill only ordinary shoppers actually pay.
