In November, Mainebiz asked, "Are you worried about how President-elect Trump's higher U.S. tariffs could affect your business?" Around 53% of respondents said they were. 

As of Feb. 1, President Donald Trump signed an executive order imposing 25% tariffs on imports from Mexico and Canada and an additional 10% levy on goods from China. Energy imports from Canada, including oil, gas and electricity, are to be taxed at a lower, 10% rate. 

Even with a 30-day pause on tariffs on Canada and Mexico, the plans are still looming. This week plans to enact tariffs on aluminum and steel are expected to go into effect.

Will the tariffs, as laid out, affect your business?
