Canada-U.S. trade talks restart, ending months-long freeze
About this episode
In the first high-level trade meeting since U.S. President Donald Trump called off negotiations with Canada in October, Canada-U.S. Trade Minister Dominic LeBlanc met with U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer in Washington on Friday. CBC's Kate McKenna reports the few details we've received surrounding the meeting, and former prime minister Justin Trudeau's deputy chief of staff Brian Clow previews what to expect from the CUSMA talks with Trump this month. Plus, Oregon Attorney General Dan Rayfield led one of the lawsuits that saw the U.S. Supreme Court strike down Trump's broadest tariffs, and explains his argument as he leads a 24-state lawsuit against the tariffs Trump used to replace them.
