Evidence

The article states that in March 2026 Republican congressman Lloyd Smucker introduced the Protecting American Streaming and Innovation Act, proposing tariffs against Canada for digital trade barriers targeting American streaming companies and content producers.

This is a concrete legislative push toward the stated trade-enforcement goal, but it is an introduction rather than enacted enforcement.

Assessments

partial same_term A for effort

Smucker made a concrete legislative push in March 2026 by introducing the Protecting American Streaming and Innovation Act, which sought tariffs against Canada over digital trade barriers affecting American streaming companies and content producers. That is meaningful action toward the promise, but the evidence shows introduction of a bill rather than actual trade enforcement or a completed policy outcome, so this is partial credit rather than full delivery.
