Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney says it’s unlikely his government can strike a tariff-free trade deal with the U.S.
Speaking Tuesday ahead of a Cabinet meeting focused on U.S. trade talks, Carney said there’s little precedent for Washington signing off on tariff-free agreements.
“There’s not a lot of evidence right now from the deals, agreements and negotiations with the Americans, for any country or any jurisdiction, to have a deal without tariffs,” Carney told reporters.
His comments come as U.S. President Donald Trump prepares to slap 35% tariffs on Canadian imports starting 1 August — the same date both sides had initially targeted for finalising a new trade agreement.
