Canada is in the midst of intense trade negotiations with the United States as an August 1 deadline imposed by President Trump approaches, threatening steep tariffs on Canadian exports. Prime Minister Mark Carney and provincial premiers are united in refusing to accept a rushed or unfavorable deal, even as business leaders and industries brace for potential economic fallout. Talks have been described as 'intense,' with both sides seeking to protect key sectors and maintain free trade carveouts, but expectations for a breakthrough before the deadline are low. The looming tariffs could have significant impacts on Canadian industries, and leaders are emphasizing substance over speed in the negotiations. Despite the pressure, Canada insists it will not settle for a 'bad deal' and is preparing for all possible outcomes.
