With a critical U.S. trade deadline approaching, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney and provincial premiers are united in refusing to accept a bad deal from President Trump, even as the threat of new tariffs looms.
Carney has emphasized that substance matters more than speed, signaling that Canada will use all available time to negotiate the best possible agreement. Ontario Premier Doug Ford and other leaders are calling for strong retaliatory measures if talks fail, including tariffs and potential export taxes. The premiers' summit in Ontario has focused on national unity, economic resilience, and the need for Indigenous partnership in major projects.
Despite mounting pressure, Canadian leaders are prioritizing the country's long-term interests over a rushed agreement.
