[U.S. food importer files lawsuit seeking to overturn government tariffs on Canada] October 21, 2020 A food importer in New Jersey filed a lawsuit on October 20, seeking to overturn the Trump administration’s 50% tariff on some Canadian goods. According to reports from the Associated Press and other media, the Liberty Justice Center, a U.S. non-profit, non-partisan litigation organization, filed a lawsuit with the U.S. Court of International Trade on behalf of Garrett Global Group. Garrett Global Group is a third-generation family-owned business importing Canadian cheese. The lawsuit states that the Trump administration's imposition of tariffs on Canada marks its "attempt to exercise the tariff power granted to Congress by the Constitution through a statute not designed for this purpose." The complaint urges the court to declare the above-mentioned tariffs "illegal", stop their implementation and collection, and request the refund of the duties and interest already collected.
