Canada to Resume US Trade Talks Amidst Tariffs

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney announced on Sunday that trade discussions with the United States will resume when the timing is deemed appropriate. He stated that he does not currently have a pressing issue to discuss with President Donald Trump, suggesting a strategic approach to re-engaging in talks.

Carney's remarks came on the sidelines of the G20 leaders' meeting. He confirmed that conversations with the US President are anticipated within the next two weeks. Canada remains committed to dialogue and awaits the US's readiness to continue discussions concerning trade policies.

The primary objective for Canada in these trade negotiations is to secure a deal that leads to the reduction of import tariffs imposed by the Trump administration on steel, aluminum, and automobiles. The ongoing tariff dispute has been a significant point of contention.
