Carney says US-Canada trade deal likely to include some tariffs

Опис:

Prime Minister Mark Carney said Canada may have to accept some US tariffs as part of a trade deal, acknowledging the Trump administration’s insistence on including levies in negotiations. This comes as Trump plans to raise tariffs on Canadian goods to 35% starting August 1. Carney warned of possible further Canadian counter‑tariffs if no deal is reached but said any agreement must be in Canada’s best interest, the BBC has reported. Despite the trade tensions, most Canadian exports to the US remain duty‑free under the US‑Mexico‑Canada Agreement.
