The talks focused on renewing the Canada-US-Mexico Agreement (CUSMA), addressing US concerns over Canada's digital services tax, and resolving disputes over lumber and tariffs. Senators urged Carney to repeal the digital services tax and emphasized the importance of reaching a new trade and security deal before the upcoming deadline. Both sides expressed a desire to 'build bridges' and avoid escalating the trade war, but key issues remain unresolved.
