U.S. to restart trade negotiations with Canada immediately, White House says

CANADA, JUN 30 – Canada dropped its 3% digital services tax targeting U.S. tech firms to resume trade talks aiming for a deal by July 21, 2025, easing tensions and boosting market optimism.

  • The White House announced on Monday that trade negotiations with Canada have resumed after Ottawa rescinded its digital services tax targeting U.S. tech firms, aiming for a deal by July 21.
  • Following Ottawa's decision to rescind its 3% digital services tax targeting U.S. tech firms, Trump suspended trade talks last Friday, demanding the tax's removal after the G7 summit.

  • Following the reversal, stocks reached record highs on Wall Street amid optimism over U.S.-Canada trade negotiations.
  • The White House plans to ask additional nations to eliminate their digital services taxes before the July 9 tariff deadline, aiming to expand its global trade strategy.
