  • The United States Trade Representative said Canada must accept tariffs as part of any trade deal, with CUSMA up for review this year and countries to indicate their intent by July 1.
  • Using concrete examples, Greer said Canada has not met U.S. requests on market openings, including wine, procurement, and dairy, and linked tariffs as leverage, Greer told CBC.
  • United States Trade Representative Greer said Canada must participate in reshoring discussions, with LeBlanc expecting to meet in Washington next week.
