Listen "Carney-Trump trade deal: What was traded away?"

Episode Synopsis

Rudyard Griffiths and Sean Speer discuss recent reports from the Globe and Mail of a potential Canada-U.S. trade deal that could come before the upcoming APEC summit. They discuss how this sectoral trade agreement would likely cover steel and aluminum through quota systems, rather than tariff elimination, while notably excluding major industries like autos and lumber. They explore potential concessions Canada may make to secure this trade deal, and question how these compromises align with Prime Minister Carney's rhetoric about Canadian independence.
