Carney says ‘work still to be done,’ while Trump touts a deal and pauses tariffs

OTTAWA – Just under two hours before a 50 per-cent tariff was scheduled to hit Canadian goods, U.S. President Donald Trump announced that Canada and the U.S. have reached a tentative deal and would hit pause on the new levies for a three-day period.

… In a statement to reporters late on Tuesday, Prime Minister Mark Carney said that “substantial progress has been made, although there is important work still to be done.”

… “The deal will include comprehensive market access for all American goods, economic security commitments, digital trade alignment, and many important provisions that will continue to protect our market and American workers, along with our Canadian partners,” according to a statement on social media by the office of the USTR.


No details as yet. Hints the deal may include 3rd Rail Dairy and Automotive.
