Carney Walks Away from U.S. Trade Talks | Calgary News

Published 6 days, 15 hours ago
Description

Canada’s Prime Minister Mark Carney has walked away from trade talks with the U.S., slamming Washington for unreasonable demands on culture, autos, and sovereignty — calling it a “lack of interest in a true economic partnership.” The U.S. pushed for controversial concessions like Canadian subsidies for French media, bilingual labeling, and restrictions on Canada’s trade autonomy — all of which Carney deemed non-starters. In retaliation, 50% tariffs on Canadian goods have kicked in, with Canada set to hit back with its own tariffs on U.S. products after Labour Day. Economists warn up to 90,000 Canadian jobs could vanish if tensions escalate further.
