CUSMA Exit Could Cost Canada Billions | Vancouver News

A new Deloitte Canada report warns that if the U.S. pulls out of CUSMA, Canada could lose 1.6% of its GDP by 2036—over $400 billion—and face 163,000 lost jobs annually, with manufacturing and electronics hit hardest. But there’s hope: diversifying trade beyond the U.S., especially in agriculture to China and India, could spark 0.6% GDP growth and create 53,000 new jobs yearly. Experts caution that predicting U.S. moves is tough amid rising protectionism, but boosting domestic infrastructure and removing interprovincial trade barriers could also unlock major economic gains.
