LeBlanc heading to Washington after Carney says CUSMA ‘broken’ by U.S. tariffs

Dominic LeBlanc meets U.S. Trade Representative amid CUSMA review and a court ruling ordering refunds on illegal U.S. tariffs impacting Canadian businesses, affecting nearly half of bilateral trade.

  • Dominic LeBlanc, Canada-U.S. Trade Minister, will head to Washington, D.C., for meetings, a report first published March 5, 2026, confirms.
  • Carney told reporters that certain CUSMA protocols weren't followed when the United States imposed tariffs, saying the agreement 'effectively has been broken in the short-term by U.S. actions'.
  • A judge with the U.S. Court of International Trade ruled Wednesday that businesses are owed refunds for tariffs levied under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, which the Supreme Court found illegal last month.
  • LeBlanc's visit lands with the CUSMA review in full swing, after attending a cabinet in Ottawa on Tuesday, Feb. 24, 2026, reflecting domestic duties.
  • Canada is looking to this year's CUSMA review to re-establish the trust individuals, businesses and investors need, with the March 5, 2026, report framing LeBlanc's trip as an effort to restore trade confidence.
