Trump administration cancels some Canada tariffs, Sen. Susan Collins says

The Trump administration has granted tariff exemptions on some Canadian products, Republican Sen. Susan Collins, who’s facing a tough re-election battle in Maine, said Friday.
The move is an implicit acknowledgement that President Donald Trump’s signature trade policy could be hurting Republican candidates running in the Nov. 3 midterm election. Polls show Democrats have a solid chance to win majorities in both the House and Senate.
The White House, Commerce Department and U.S. Trade Representative’s office didn’t immediately respond to requests for comment.
