Is Trump's trade war with Canada reaching a turning point?
Description
Sean Speer and Rudyard Griffiths analyze the latest U.S. tariffs on Canadian goods and the state of bilateral trade negotiations. They debate whether Canada should pursue a deal before the midterms, arguing that post-election Trump may become more unpredictable and constrained by divided government. They explore how provincial premiers have complicated federal negotiations, particularly on retaliatory measures, and examine the political dynamics limiting Prime Minister Carney's room to maneuver toward a settlement.
