LeBlanc says Canada isn’t ‘source of any delays’ on talks with U.S.

During a discussion at the Hudson Institute last week, U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said it was unlikely that the U.S. would resolve its issues with Canada ahead of the July 1 deadline, when the review is scheduled to start, but that “we are on track to resolve many of them and to move as quickly as we can.” The deadline is when the United States must let Canada and Mexico know if it wants a negotiation or to reopen trade deals, but Greer also must advise Congress by June on whether to extend CUSMA or pursue change in the arrangement.
