Canadian Prime Minister Carney says trade talks with US resume after Canada rescinded tech tax

Canadian Prime Minister Carney says trade talks with US resume after Canada rescinded tech tax

TORONTO -- Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said late Sunday trade talks with U.S. have resumed after Canada rescinded its plan to tax U.S. technology firms. U.S. President Donald Trump said Friday that he was suspending trade talks with Canada over its plans to continue with its tax on technology firms, which he called 'a direct and blatant attack on our country.' The Canadian government said 'in anticipation' of a trade deal 'Canada would rescind' the Digital Serves Tax. The tax was set to go into effect Monday. Carney and Trump spoke on the phone Sunday, and Carney's office said they agreed to resume negotiations. 'Today's announcement will support a resumption of negotiations toward the July 21, 2025, timeline set out at this month's G7 Leaders' Summit in Kananaskis,' Carney said in a statement. Carney visited Trump in May at the White House, where he was polite but firm. Trump traveled to Canada for the G7 summit in Alberta, where Carney said that Canada and the U.S. had set a 30-day deadline for trade talks. Trump, in a post on his social media network last Friday, said Canada had informed the U.S. that it was sticking to its plan to impose the digital services tax, which applies to Canadian and foreign businesses that engage with online users in Canada. The digital services tax was due to hit companies including Amazon, Google, Meta, Uber and Airbnb with a 3% levy on revenue from Canadian users. It would have applied retroactively, leaving U.S. companies with a $2 billion U.S. bill due at the end of the month. Daniel Béland, a political science professor at McGill University in Montreal, called Carney's retreat a 'clear victory" for Trump. "At some point this move might have become necessary in the context of Canada-US trade negotiations themselves but Prime Minister Carney acted now to appease President Trump and have him agree to simply resume these negotiations, which is a clear victory for both the White House and big tech," Béland said. He said it makes Carney look vulnerable to President Trump's outbursts. 'President Trump forced PM Carney to do exactly what big tech wanted. U.S. tech executive will be very happy with this outcome,' Béland said. Canadian Finance Minister François-Philippe Champagne also spoke with U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent on Sunday. 'Rescinding the digital services tax will allow the negotiations of a new economic and security relationship with the United States to make vital progress,' Canadian Finance Minister François-Philippe Champagne said in a statement. Trump's announcement Friday was the latest swerve in the trade war he's launched since taking office for a second term in January. Progress with Canada has been a roller coaster, starting with the U.S. president poking at the nation's northern neighbor and repeatedly suggesting it would be absorbed as a U.S. state. Canada and the U.S. have been discussing easing on goods from America's neighbor. Trump has imposed 50% tariffs on steel and aluminum as well as 25% tariffs on autos. He is also charging a 10% tax on imports from most countries, though he could raise rates on July 9, after the 90-day negotiating period he set would expire. Canada and Mexico face separate tariffs of as much as 25% that Trump put into place under the auspices of stopping fentanyl smuggling, though some products are still protected under the 2020 U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement signed during Trump's first term.

Canada rescinds digital services tax after Trump suspends trade talks

TORONTO — Canada late Sunday said it would rescind a new tax it planned to collect from large tech companies after President Donald Trump last week called it a 'blatant attack' on the United States and said he would suspend trade talks with Ottawa over it. In a statement, the Canadian government said Prime Minister Mark Carney and Trump had agreed to resume negotiations on a 'mutually beneficial comprehensive trade agreement' and would aim to reach a deal by July 21. The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The move came hours before Canada was set to begin collecting the first payments from a digital services tax it implemented last year. The levy would have applied to tech firms such as Google, Apple, Meta and Amazon. (Amazon founder Jeff Bezos owns The Washington Post.) A trade group representing those companies last week estimated that the tax, which would apply to revenue earned from social media services and online marketplaces involving Canadian users, would collectively cost U.S. firms as much as $2.3 billion annually. The tax has long drawn opposition from Washington. The Biden administration argued that it discriminated against U.S. companies. Canadian business groups have also criticized the levy, in part because they believed it could strain U.S.-Canada ties and imperil a key trade relationship. On Friday, it appeared their worst fears were confirmed. Trump said he would suspend trade talks over the tax, plunging U.S.-Canada relations into deeper turmoil. Ties between the neighbors have been under severe strain since Trump returned to the Oval Office and put Canada in his crosshairs. He has imposed several sets of tariffs on Canadian goods, questioned Canada's viability as a country and threatened to use 'economic force' to make it the 51st state. Canada sends more than three-quarters of its exports to the U.S., and the tariffs are weighing on its economy. 'Economically, we have such power over Canada,' Trump told reporters Friday in the Oval Office after he announced the suspension of trade negotiations in a social media post. 'I'd rather not use it, but they did something with our tech companies … We have all the cards.' Two days later, Canada bowed to his demands to scrap the tax in a bid to salvage the trade negotiations. In its statement Sunday, the Canadian government said it would soon introduce legislation in Parliament to cancel the tax. Carney, who swept to power in a federal election in April by casting himself as the person best placed to handle Trump, appeared to have a more cordial relationship with the U.S. president than his predecessor, Justin Trudeau. Trump and Carney had agreed to accelerate talks to reach a new trade agreement at the Group of Seven summit that Canada hosted earlier this month. 'Prime Minister Carney has been clear that Canada will take as long as necessary, but no longer, to achieve that deal,' the government said in the statement.
