ALBERTA, CANADA (RFD-TV) — While President Donald Trump is in Asia, some are left wondering about the status of trade negotiations with Canada and Mexico. President Trump halted those discussions in response to the Government of Ontario’s commercial featuring the voice of former U.S. President Ronald Reagan, which highlights both the short-term wins and the long-term negative impact of retaliatory tariffs on Americans.
Shaun Haney, Host of RealAg Radio on Rural Radio SiriusXM Channel 147, joined us on Tuesday’s Market Day Report with the latest.
In his interview with RFD-TV News, Haney talked about whether that commercial was a justifiable reason for President Donald Trump to cut off trade negotiations with our northern USMCA partner. He also discussed Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney’s response to Trump’s reactionary decision, and when we might expect trade talks among the U.S., Canada, and Mexico to resume.
Input costs may stay elevated beyond tariff impacts.
