Trade Talks Collapse Amid Tariff Surge | Edmonton News
Description
Trade talks between Canada and the U.S. collapsed last Friday, leaving a 50% tariff on $29 billion in Canadian goods—just as both sides were hoping to avoid such measures. Canada’s Prime Minister blamed last-minute U.S. demands that threatened trade with other nations and undermined cultural sovereignty. The opposition Conservatives are demanding transparency, calling for release of draft agreement text to explain why negotiations failed and why tariffs now exceed levels when the PM took office. Canadians are left wondering what went wrong behind closed doors—and whether the government can deliver on its promise of a trade win.
