Summary
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is pushing to restart stalled trade talks with the U.K. as Canada seeks to reduce reliance on the U.S. amid Trump’s trade war.
While Trudeau secured a temporary delay on U.S. tariffs by agreeing to border security measures, uncertainty remains.
Talks with the U.K. broke down last year over agricultural disputes, but Canada sees renewed negotiations as beneficial for trade diversification.
The Canadian dairy cartel is a major obstacle unfortunately.
Why do they get a say
It would be easier to make free trade agreements with other countries if we had free trade within our own country.
They are indeed, especially when it comes to talks with the EU as a whole. Our regulations are much better than the US but not up to EU standards.
