Canada has no intention of pursuing free trade with China, says Carney | The Guardian

Canada's Prime Minister, Mark Carney, has stated that Canada has no intention of pursuing a free trade agreement with China, despite recent tariff reductions. This announcement comes as the US President, Donald Trump, threatens to impose 100% tariffs on Canadian imports if Canada proceeds with a trade deal with China. Carney clarified that the recent agreement with China only reduced tariffs on specific sectors, and Canada is committed to not pursuing free trade agreements with non-market economies without prior notification.
