Carney says a U.S. trade deal without some tariffs is unlikely
CANADA, JUL 15 – Prime Minister Mark Carney said trade talks with the US will intensify before the Aug. 1 deadline but some tariffs on Canadian goods are likely to remain, impacting key sectors.
- Last week, President Trump extended the tariff deadline to August 1, publishing the letter on Truth Social and expressing disappointment with the negotiation pace.
- Under their initial timeline last month, Carney and Trump agreed to finalize a trade and security pact by July 21, but President Trump unilaterally pushed back the timeline to press Canada for concessions.
- The 35% rate jumps from 25% with key exemptions, while the administration slapped 50% duties on steel and aluminum and set a 50% tariff on copper next month.
- Following the US tariff threat, Canada imposed its own countermeasures, and Prime Minister Mark Carney said trade talks will intensify ahead of August 1.
- Given this exposure, about three-quarters of Canadian exports go to the US, making tariffs especially damaging to key industries, and Canada will need to pivot trade relationships elsewhere.
