US Senators Push for Trade Reset in High-Stakes Ottawa Talks with PM Carney

A bipartisan group of US senators visited Ottawa to meet with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney as a critical trade deadline approaches.

The talks focused on mending strained relations amid ongoing trade tensions, with both sides aiming to 'build bridges, not throw wrenches.' Senators pressed Carney to repeal Canada's digital services tax and discussed issues like lumber, tourism, and defense cooperation. The meetings signal a concerted effort to reinvigorate the Canada-US-Mexico Agreement (CUSMA) and secure a favorable deal for both nations.

The outcome of these discussions could shape North American trade and economic ties for years to come.
