Top U.S. trade official lays out demands for CUSMA talks

U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer told Congress on Wednesday that the review of the North American trade deal 'depends on' resolving a list of issues with Mexico and Canada, including Canada's barriers to dairy, provincial boycotts of U.S. alcohol, the Online Streaming Act and the Online News Act. Future Borders Coalition executive director Laura Dawson frames it as positive that the U.S. is signalling it wants to improve — not abandon — the deal. Plus, responding to Prime Minister Mark Carney's doubts that Canada can secure U.S. tariff relief before a CUSMA review, Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe says that it's 'incumbent on us' to ask again to re-engage.
