Sept 15 Tariff Shift: What's Actually Changing on Canadian Goods (And What Isn't)

  Published September 12, 2026 At 12:01 a.m. ET on Tuesday, September 15, a new round of U.S. tariff changes takes effect on Canadian goods. If you've seen headlines calling this a "new 50% tariff on Canadian steel, aluminum and paper," here's the more accurate story: it isn't a new tariff at all. It's the U.S. reshuffling which products fall under a 50% tariff that's already been in place since August 22 — adding some categories, removing others, on the same day. Here's what's actually happening, and why it matters more to Canadian manufacturers and cross-border shoppers than to your everyday grocery bill. The tariff this modifies Back on August 22, 2026, the U.S. imposed a 50% tariff under Section 338 of the Tariff Act of 1930 on roughly $20 billion CAD of Canadian goods. The White House framed it as retaliation for Canadian "discrimination" against U.S. alcoholic beverages, dairy, and motor vehicles — three separate proclamations, eac...

Slow-Roasted Salmon with French Herb Salsa

 


Hosting made easy and elegant: let this slow-roasted salmon be the stress-free star of your brunch or buffet.

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 pounds salmon fillet, skin on
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 small shallot, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 tablespoon very finely chopped fresh chervil (okay to substitute more parsley if you can’t find it)
  • 1 tablespoon very finely chopped fresh tarragon
  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 225°F and set an oven rack in the middle position.
  2. Place the salmon on a baking sheet. Drizzle with the olive oil and sprinkle the salt evenly over top. Slide the pan into the oven and roast for 40 to 50 minutes, until the fish begins to flake in the thickest part of the filet when poked with a knife or your finger. (Because this method is so gentle on its proteins, the fish will appear translucent even when it’s cooked.) Using a small spoon, scrape off any white coagulated proteins that may have formed on the salmon.
  3. Break the salmon into large, rustic pieces and spoon the French herb salsa (below) over top. This dish can be served hot, cold, or room temperature.
  4. In a small bowl, combine the shallot and vinegar and let sit for 15 minutes to macerate.
  5. In a separate small bowl, combine the herbs, olive oil, salt, and a few grinds of black pepper.
  6. Just before serving, use a slotted spoon to add the shallot (but not the vinegar, yet) to the herb oil. Stir, taste, and add the vinegar as needed (I usually add 2 to 3 teaspoons). Taste and adjust salt, if necessary.

Make-Ahead Instructions: The salmon can be cooked 1 day ahead of time, covered with plastic wrap, and refrigerated. The French herb salsa can be made, covered, and refrigerated up to 2 days ahead of time.
