- Carney says he and Trump will intensify trade negotiations after US imposes 50% tariffs
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney and Donald Trump agreed to intensify trade negotiations after the U.S. imposed 50% tariffs on most Canadian goods, excluding energy products, potash, fish, and critical minerals. The tariffs target goods previously protected under the USMCA, which the U.S. did not renew, and could harm economic relations between the two nations. Canadian leaders criticized the move, warning of increased costs and strained bilateral ties.
