The talks focused on renewing the Canada-US-Mexico Agreement (CUSMA), addressing ongoing trade disputes such as tariffs and the digital services tax, and ensuring mutual economic benefits. Senators urged Carney to repeal the digital services tax, citing concerns about its impact on American businesses. Both sides emphasized the importance of collaboration and 'building bridges' to avoid escalating trade tensions.
