In this segment, we look at the escalating U.S.-Canada trade war and what it could mean for American workers and consumers. The Trump administration has revived a Depression-era trade tool, raising new questions about whether we're repeating some of the mistakes of the past.
We look at how tariffs on Canadian goods and raw materials could push prices higher, why toilet paper has suddenly become part of the trade war, and why Minneapolis Fed President Neel Kashkari is warning that prolonged tariff uncertainty could keep inflation elevated.
We'll also look at the strange personal-finance advice accompanying all of this: if everything is getting more expensive, maybe you should go searching for money you've forgotten about.
Because apparently the solution to an affordability crisis is… checking under the couch cushions.
The tariff war starts with countries. It ends with your receipt.
