But that diplomatic calm may now be unraveling \u2014 and fast.<\/p>\n<p>The trigger? A controversial new tax that\u2019s put a major dent in U.S.-Canada relations. Canada has announced a 3% digital services tax on large tech firms like Amazon, Meta, Google, Uber, and Airbnb \u2014 and it\u2019s retroactive to 2022.<\/p>\n<p>As\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/politics\/trump-administration\/canada-rescinds-digital-services-tax-trump-cuts-us-trade-talks-rcna215875\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">NBC News<\/a>\u00a0reports, that means American tech giants could be facing a whopping $2 billion tax bill, due by the end of this month.
