PM Carney to unveil new advisory council focused on Canada-U.S. trade: sources
The council will replace a Trudeau-era panel as Carney warns U.S. tariffs threaten auto, steel and lumber workers.
- On Tuesday, Prime Minister Mark Carney will name a new advisory council on Canada-U.S. trade, replacing the previous body established by former prime minister Justin Trudeau in early 2025.
- Carney recently stated Canada's ties to America have become "weaknesses" that must be corrected, citing tariffs threatening auto, steel, and lumber industries as primary drivers for the shift.
- Criticizing Canada's trade strategy on Friday, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said Carney "has a problem with us" while mocking a recent visit to China; U.S. tariffs reached Great Depression-era levels.
- U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer and Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum announced an "official bilateral negotiating round" on Monday, while Trade Minister Dominic LeBlanc's office confirmed Canada has submitted proposals.
- With the CUSMA trade agreement up for review this year, the new council will influence Canada's negotiating stance, echoing the advisory structure Trudeau established during original negotiations.
