What to know
- Carney says trade talks with Washington have intensified only slightly, with no deal yet reached.
- Canada rejected US terms offered in August over unmet 'red lines'; Carney says it will sign only an agreement serving Canadians' interests.
- Trump told reporters at a Michigan rally the two sides are 'getting close to a deal,' a claim Carney frames as the US moving toward Canada's position, not the reverse.
- Development comes as US midterm elections loom, adding political context to Trump's push for a resolution.
“To the extent to which the US is moving towards accepting those aspects, then there's a greater prospect of a deal. But we'll judge it, and if there is something, we'll judge it as a whole.”

“.. Carney on Friday reiterated his insistence that he would not strike a deal ‘just for the sake of it.’ Asked whether that meant he would hold out for a new president if necessary, the prime minister answered .. ‘We’ll have to, if that’s what it takes.’” 🇨🇦

I see your point, you could well be correct. But even with a Democrat majority in both houses, that can't override Executive Orders. The Democrats can't impose a good deal for Canada in the next 2 years. Trump can't veto anything other than a supermajority in both houses. Trump is impulsive and desperate right now. I don't see him having more…

Carney details Canada's red lines, cites August rejection
Carney said Ottawa had set firm bottom lines that led it to reject the terms the US put forward in August, and that Canada will only sign a deal that serves the national interest.
“We had very clear bottom lines, red lines, which meant that we were not willing to sign what was offered in August.”

@apnews.com You people in the media need to push back on his bullshit. He either doesn't understand trade deficits or he is lying. a)Canada has NOT been ripping off US. b) he was president '17-'19 and never said a word about this. Seriously, challenge his bullshit.
-
I would not discount the various ways Trump could either leave office early or just not leave office at all. All bets are off with that guy.
-
Ts the attention he seeks the most. When one compares him to his old man, Fred, all there is to see is an abject failure. So he's an attention who're instead, constantly seeking validation of others. Because he knows at his core his worth, and that it is nothing.
-
That was an official government meeting in which they were discussing tariff impafts etc. Do you really think Adam Schiff would campaign for Danielle Smith?

What's the point? Seriously what's the actual point here? I mean I guess besides being cordial, why would we deal with this administration? They've proven time and time again that it means nothing to them.

Buddy, giving in to the US absolutely won’t be what’s best for the average Canadian on the long run. Completely delusional to think otherwise. Yeah, let’s give in to the known bully that known to cancel his own deal when he see a weak trading partner. No way this backs fire you are right

You’re not a real person lmao, the American government tried to pull a fast one over us, they attempted to have veto power over who we trade with lmao. Not to mention all the other bs, keep licking trumps boots.

I feel like Trumps team will just talk like they are getting closer and then keep trying to force some weird ultimatum at the last minute over and over. We should just stop talking to them.
-
Of course it’s not literally only Trump, what is your point? He is the epicenter. And almost everyone who agrees is a supporter.
-
Im pretty sure Mark declined the last deal not only because it was crap but also he knew come midterms Trump would be eager for some wins .
-
It's in the US best interest to seal this deal up prior to midterms, it gives us leverage and allows to negotiate from a better position now than stalling until midterms. But reading through these comments it's clear that most here don't actually want what's best for Canada, and just want what's worse for Trump. Trump is a piece of shit, the US…

But at this point I don't think signing a trade deal with Canada is going to move the needle on his popularity down there. Well, that's not what they were hoping when they changed the tariffs in hopes that collins wins again.
