For shippers: Prepare for prolonged instability; supply chains will need to adapt to ongoing uncertainty.
For freight brokers/carriers: Border congestion could increase as trade tensions escalate, though the temporary auto tariff exemption may stabilize certain shipments.
For U.S. consumers: Some relief for car prices in the short term, but overall, expect continued supply chain disruptions and rising costs.
For Canadian consumers: Tariffs will likely keep pushing prices up, and if the WTO challenge fails, long-term costs could remain high.
