OTTAWA — Prime Minister Mark Carney is set to hold a news conference in Ottawa today at noon ET, after meeting with his cabinet this morning.
Carney is expected to provide an update on Canada-U.S. trade, but his office would not confirm reports that he will announce Ottawa will remove some retaliatory tariffs on American products that comply with the Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement.
Canada imposed 25 per cent tariffs on a long list of American goods in March, including oranges, alcohol, clothing and shoes, motorcycles and cosmetics.
Carney spoke with U.S. President Donald Trump by phone on Thursday.
