Liberty Justice Center sues Trump administration over Canadian tariffs

The Liberty Justice Center filed a lawsuit on behalf of US food company Gellert Global Group, arguing that the White House exceeded its authority by imposing 50% tariffs on $20 billion of Canadian goods under Section 338 of the 1930 Tariff Act. The suit contends the administration misused a dormant statute to impose sweeping import restrictions without congressional limits, noting the tariffs were added just one week before collection began, bypassing the required 30-day waiting period.
