Trump says deal with Canada close, but he holds ‘all the cards’
Trump said Canada is pushing for a deal as talks remain stalled and both countries keep imposing tariffs and retaliation on each side of the border.
- On Friday, President Donald Trump told reporters at the White House that "Canada is working very hard to make a deal with us," asserting the United States holds "all the cards" in ongoing negotiations.
- Tensions between the nations escalated after trade negotiations collapsed in August, triggering new tariffs and retaliatory measures on both sides of the border.
- The United States began collecting 50-percent duties on roughly $28 billion of Canadian goods on Aug. 22, and Canada matched the tariffs dollar for dollar shortly after Labour Day.

- The impasse has prompted Carney to urge a shift away from Canada's largest trading partner, casting doubt on the long-term viability of the US-Mexico-Canada Agreement.
