Trade ‘war’ or not, are Canada and the United States now dug in?

U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer might not like to think of it as a trade “war,” but whatever you call it — a difference of opinion? an incongruity? the unpleasantness? — it’s now been going on for more than 19 months.

In February 2025, Donald Trump, in defiance of a free trade deal he himself signed in 2018, first announced tariffs on a number of Canadian products.

And it seems now it could be several more months before hostilities are reduced, let alone ceased.


Is it just me or is the CBC starting to walk things back for Carney?
