In their own words

Bauer, CCM — the big, heavy hitters in the market — came in and said: 'We'll absorb these costs. Don't worry about it,'
John Merola, B&R Sports, quoted by The Associated Press · mprnews.org, Sep 8, 2026
A US hockey retailer describes CCM telling the trade it would eat the new duty rather than pass it on.
And then as nothing happened, they kind of came back and said, 'We can't cover this, so we're gonna have to increase pricing.'
John Merola, B&R Sports, quoted by The Associated Press · mprnews.org, Sep 8, 2026
The same retailer says CCM and Bauer reversed course once the duty stayed in place, and told retailers prices were going up.
Even if manufacturers have moved over the last several years from Canada to other countries, there's still healthy amount being manufactured in Canada and, yeah, this 50 percent tariff is a big deal.
Todd Smith, Sports & Fitness Industry Association, quoted by The Associated Press · mprnews.org, Sep 8, 2026
The industry association puts the scale of the hit on Canadian-made hockey gear in plain terms.

At a glance

Where: Montreal, QC
Shop: ca.ccmhockey.com
Size: Large company, 250 or more people CCM's LinkedIn page lists "201-500 employees" at a "Privately Held" company headquartered in "Montreal, Quebec", and Wikipedia records that "In October 2024, Altor Equity Partners of Stockholm purchased a majority share in Sport Maska from Birch Hill", so this is a private-equity-owned manufacturer far past our small threshold.
Tariff hits: Main products hit Sticks, skates, gloves, pants, helmets and goalie gear are the whole business, so 9506.99.25 and 9506.70.40 between them cover the core catalogue; apparel and bags are the only significant lines outside the two.
