Why the stakes are high for Missouri in Trump’s Canada tariffs
President Donald Trump's 50% tariff on Canadian imports could significantly impact Missouri, which exported $5.8 billion in goods to Canada in 2025. The state's economy relies heavily on manufacturing and agricultural exports to Canada, with small and medium-sized businesses comprising 84% of Missouri's exporters. Tariffs may raise costs, disrupt trade, and threaten 74,000 jobs tied to Missouri's $18.7 billion in total exports.
