Canada-U.S. Trade Negotiations Rekindled Amidst July 9 Deadline
July 1, 2025
On June 27, 2025, President Trump announced a pause in trade negotiations with Canada after Canada proposed a digital services tax on U.S. tech firms. In response, Canada has withdrawn its tax proposal, paving the way for both nations to resume negotiations before the July 9 deadline, marking the end of a 90-day pause on country-specific reciprocal tariffs.
This brief interruption underscores the volatility of U.S.-Canada trade discussions. Trade experts and market analysts are increasingly skeptical about the U.S.’s ability to finalize comprehensive trade agreements by July 9. A Financial Times article from June 30, 2025, suggests the U.S. may prioritize “mini-deals” targeting specific economic sectors while broader negotiations continue.
As a result, tech companies, manufacturers, and export-driven businesses are reassessing their duty-savings strategies and preparing for potential shifts in duties, costs, and market access.
