Canada Pushes for 16-Year CUSMA Deal

Canada’s Trade Minister Dominic LeBlanc is pushing to extend CUSMA for 16 years without annual reviews, arguing the deal serves all three nations well as the July deadline looms. While LeBlanc heads to Washington for talks, the U.S. wants to revisit parts of the agreement—especially around auto, steel, and aluminum tariffs. Amid separate U.S.-Mexico negotiations and Canada’s focus on resolving structural tariff issues, political tensions rise: the PM defends Canada’s stance, while the opposition accuses LeBlanc of failing to deliver results and claims Mexico has outmaneuvered Canada in trade talks.
