Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Carney Signals US-Canada Trade Deal May Include Tariffs

Caption: Carney Signals US-Canada Trade Deal May Include Tariffs. Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney has admitted that a new trade deal with the United States may involve accepting some tariffs. Speaking ahead of a cabinet meeting in Ottawa, Carney said there’s little indication the Trump administration is prepared to drop the levies entirely. Last week, President Trump announced a 35% tariff on Canadian goods starting August 1, escalating tensions in the ongoing trade standoff. Carney noted that all of Trump’s previous trade deals have included some form of tariffs, suggesting this negotiation may follow the same path. While Carney didn’t confirm whether he’d accept tariffs in a final agreement, he reiterated he would only sign a deal that benefits Canada and hinted at further countermeasures if a resolution isn’t reached.
