Carney Has Canadians’ Support on Trump. Now Comes the Hard Part.
Saturday, August 29, 2026
Prime Minister Mark Carney announced Canada would pause trade negotiations with the United States following tariff actions by the Trump administration. A poll conducted after the announcement showed majority support among Canadian respondents for the decision to step back from talks. Carney stated the pause would continue until conditions changed, though he did not specify a timeline for potential resumption of negotiations. Trade analysts noted that both countries face economic pressure from the extended dispute, with Canadian exports to the U.S. affected by the tariffs.
