We wanted to take a moment to update you on the recent U.S. tariffs and how they may affect DHC.
As you may know, President Trump has imposed 25% tariffs on all goods produced in Canada and Mexico entering the United States, including aerospace and aviation parts and products, as of March 4, 2025. In response, Canada has introduced focused reciprocal tariffs on a number of U.S. produced goods imported into Canada.
In addition to the 25% US Tariffs, DHC is aware of possible tariffs on Canadian steel and aluminum products entering the U.S. scheduled to start March 12, 2025. However, DHC has confirmed that, currently, most of its goods are exempt from these metal tariffs.
How Does This Impact DHC?
We know as of today, that all Canadian manufactured goods are affected by the 25% U.S. tariffs. In Canada’s response, aerospace and aviation products have largely been exempt from Canada’s initial retaliatory tariffs except for a few items, recognizing the significance of the industry to the country. While we expect increased costs in our operations from these tariffs, we are actively working with our partners to minimize that impact.
Ongoing Efforts
This situation remains fluid, and we continue to collaborate with Canadian authorities and our advisors to minimize the effect of these tariffs.
We appreciate your continued dedication and adaptability as we navigate these changes.
