Sage Podcast: A Trade Deal Could Buy Stability. It Won’t Restore the Old Canada-U.S. Relationship.

The Cliffhanger Continues. Are Canada-U.S. Trade Talks at a Make-or-Break Moment?

At what may be a make-or-break moment in the trade talks, Canada must decide how much it is willing to concede in exchange for greater economic stability. Would Ottawa accept some tariffs in return for more predictability on steel, aluminum and autos? How will Mexico and deeply integrated North American supply chains shape the outcome? And if the talks fail, should Canada walk away, retaliate, pursue a legal challenge or wait for the U.S. midterm elections?

Canada-U.S. relations expert and former U.S. diplomat Scotty Greenwood, and Senator Peter Harder, former Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs, and Senator Peter Boehm, former Senior Associate Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs, join host Allan Gregg to discuss what Canada might gain, what it may have to give up and whether an agreement would provide a platform for moving forward—or merely another pause in an increasingly adversarial relationship.
