Canadian officials are making a diplomatic push in Washington to avoid U.S. tariffs but ultimately they remain in the dark about U.S. President Donald Trump’s intentions, Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly said after meeting with U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
Joly held a first meeting with Rubio in his new capacity on Jan. 29. While she said her arguments to U.S. officials explaining what’s at stake for the two countries if tariffs are imposed are “definitely resonating,” Joly told reporters after the meeting she has no insight on what the U.S. administration plans to do.
