Trade negotiations between Canada and the U.S. are finally showing faint signs of life as a milestone looms for renewal of their three-way trade deal with Mexico.
The minister responsible for Canada-U.S. trade, Dominic LeBlanc, says he will travel to Washington, D.C., next week.
The slow pace of negotiations, and U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariffs, have combined to raise doubts about the fate of an agreement that’s crucial to the Canadian economy.
The trade deal is due for its first-ever joint review on July 1st but the talks could run past that deadline.
