LeBlanc to meet with Trump's trade czar to talk about CUSMA review
Dominic LeBlanc aims to address trade barriers and build consensus with U.S. and Mexican counterparts amid uncertainty ahead of the mandatory 2026 Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement review.
- On Feb. 18, 2026, Dominic LeBlanc, minister in charge of Canada-U.S. trade, said he will meet Jamieson Greer, U.S. Trade Representative, in the coming weeks to discuss the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement review.
- Tensions stem from remarks by U.S. officials including Greer, who said `They refuse to sell U.S. wine and spirits on their shelves`, complicating bilateral talks.
- LeBlanc, currently leading a trade mission to Mexico this week, said Ottawa and Mexican counterparts agree a North American deal is the best way forward and he spoke with Jamieson Greer on the phone last week ahead of their in-person meeting.
- Officials point to both shared interests and concrete fallout, noting Canada and Mexico have different U.S. trade ties but many shared areas, while some Canadian provinces removed U.S. alcohol last year.
- Given talk of bilateral pacts, the upcoming LeBlanc-Greer meeting could influence whether Canada pursues a trilateral or bilateral approach, as uncertainty from the Trump administration continues this year.
