A tariff is a tax on goods or services being brought into a country.
Example: If I were to sell oranges in Canada, they may add a tariff on the oranges that I sell. So Canada they may add a $1 tax on each orange I sell there. This would make my oranges more expensive.

A quota is a fixed limit on the amount of goods and services a country can trade.
Example: Canada may limit the number of oranges I am allowed to sell there. They may do this to make sure that oranges sold buy Canadians will be bought too, not just mine.

An embargo is a ban on trade with a country.
Example: Canada could put an embargo on the United States which means I could no longer sell my oranges there.
Countries put embargoes on other countries if they don't like things they are doing or something that they believe.
