3 prediction markets price this story:

  • Before Oct 1, 2026 — resolved “No” on 1 Oct 2026. For the outcome to be "Yes," Donald Trump must announce a new policy decision that reduces, removes, or suspends an existing tariff on imports from Canada, with a specified effective date, after the market's issuance and before October 1, 2026. The resolution depends solely on this official announcement by Donald Trump, not on any other actions or statements.
  • Before Oct 1, 2026 — resolved “No” on 1 Oct 2026. The outcome is Yes if Canada’s Prime Minister personally announces a new decision to reduce, remove, or suspend an existing tariff on U.S. goods between now and October 1, 2026. The outcome is No if this specific announcement does not occur within that timeframe. Readers often mistake general trade tensions or retaliatory measures for the required official tariff reduction.
  • Before Oct 1, 2026 — resolved “No” on 1 Oct 2026. The outcome is Yes if Canada’s Prime Minister personally announces a new or increased tariff on U.S. goods between now and October 1, 2026. The outcome is No if no such announcement occurs by that date. Readers often mistake general diplomatic pressure or existing tariffs for the required official announcement of a new or increased duty.

Odds are the market's probability that the outcome happens, updated every few minutes. They are information about what traders expect, not a forecast we make and not investment advice.
