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.
100% we won’t see Starmer engaging with this whilst Trump is dithering. And why should he? Canada turning to us after being spurned by America isn’t a good look. Especially as we would then risk the orange one’s wrath
You’ll probably get the wrath anyway. It’s a matter of time. Best to plan.
