Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre has sent letter to Prime Minister Mark Carney ahead of his upcoming meeting with the U.S. president, asking Carney to deliver on promises he made during the spring election and negotiate an end to U.S. tariffs.
With Carney set to meet with U.S. President Donald Trump on Oct. 7, Poilievre said the prime minister has failed to negotiate a deal that would lower U.S. tariffs on Canada. While Carney had promised to make a deal with Trump by July 21, with the deadline being eventually moved back to Aug. 1, the two leaders have not yet reached an agreement.
