Political lean describes where an outlet sits within the politics of its own country. It is never a position on a single global scale.

Political lean is comparable inside one country and not across them, which is why the bar groups by country first. Publicly funded broadcasters are not marked as state-linked.

The owner of each outlet is listed as a matter of record, not as a judgement about the outlet.

Every outlet covering this story shares the same political lean; read with that in mind.

Canada will impose customs duties ranging from 15 to 50 percent on a series of American products starting September 8. Canada has stated it will retaliate further if its automotive sector is hit by new surtaxes from the United States. The 50 percent tariff is expected to apply even to vehicles and parts that meet USMCA requirements.

How each side framed it

Centre
Outlets with a center lean framed the event as a toughening of Canada's response in a worsening trade war and a potential blow to Japanese automakers.
