Carney says Canada won't settle for a 'bad deal' on US tariffs
Published: 7/23/2025

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney stated that Canada will not accept a "bad deal" with the US as a tariff deadline approaches on August 1. Concerns persist over potential new tariffs that could impact US importers and disrupt the economy. Carney emphasized the need for a trade agreement that benefits Canadians and may implement protective measures for key Canadian industries such as aluminium and lumber. US President Donald Trump has imposed tariffs on various Canadian goods, leading to ongoing trade tensions between the two nations.
