News snippet: Canada-U.S. Trade Minister Dominic LeBlanc is set to meet with U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick in Washington this week, CTV News has confirmed. LeBlanc is scheduled to leave for Washington on Tuesday, though a date and time for the meeting itself has yet to be decided.
The development comes just days after Prime Minister Mark Carney announced Friday that Canada will be dropping some of its countertariffs on American goods, amid a protracted trade war between the two countries. The trip is the latest in several that LeBlanc has made to Washington in recent months, as officials continue negotiations to hammer out a new economic and security deal. After a deadline to ink a new agreement by Aug. 1 came and went, U.S. President Donald Trump raised tariffs on Canadian goods that are not covered by the countries’ free-trade deal to 35 per cent.
Huge waste of time.
the only person that is worth meeting with is President Trump and the outcome of said meeting will only be valid for a few minutes.
