Carney to brief premiers on U.S. trade discussions as Trump deadline bears down
OTTAWA — Prime Minister Mark Carney will be offering his update on trade talks with the White House when he sits down with the premiers Tuesday, while discussing their concerns as an Aug. 1 deadline for more tariffs rapidly approaches. Carney is joining the provincial and territorial premiers during their summer gathering in Muskoka, Ont. Carney is expected to offer an opening statement, but most of the meeting on Tuesday is set to happen behind closed doors. On Monday, Quebec Premier François Legault said he will tell Carney he wants protection in negotiations for supply management for the dairy, egg and poultry sectors, as well as the exemption for Quebec's cultural industries from free-trade requirements.

British Columbia Premier David Eby has said he hoped Carney would kick off trade discussions by trying resolve the softwood lumber issue , which has been a trade irritant between Canada and the U.S. for decades. Carney recently said he thought it unlikely that there wouldn't be at least some tariffs in any deal struck before Aug. 1, though most of Canada's trade with the U.S. is protected by the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement (CUSMA( that exempts most of the goods and services crossing the border. So far, Trump has imposed tariffs of 50 per cent on steel and aluminum; 25 per cent tariffs on goods, automobiles and automobile parts not covered by the CUSMA trade deal; and 10 per cent tariffs on energy. He is now threatening to impose a 35 per cent blanket tariff on Aug. 1 Canada has so far retaliated with counter tariffs on billions of dollars worth of American exports, but Carney is holding off on further measures pending the result of ongoing negotiations by the end of the month. Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe said he has 'never been a big proponent of increasing countertariffs' and would rather try to find a way to get the White House to renew CUSMA, which is due to begin its mandated review in 2026. Moe also signalled he is prepared to live with some level of tariffs for the time being. 'We won't get to zero on each and every topic. The goal is to get as close as zero on as many items that we possibly can. I know that's the prime minister's goal as well,' he said. Whatever the outcome of the deal is — tariffs or no tariffs — Legault said he will ask Carney to make sure there is a specific time frame to add more certainty for businesses. Speaking in Hamilton, Ont. last week, Carney said his team was 'in the midst of long now and tough negotiations with the United States, and… working for the best deal for Canada.' 'Part of the reason why we don't have a deal is that deal is not yet on the table,' he said.

In the news today: Trade war to dominate meeting with premiers, PM
Here is a roundup of stories from The Canadian Press designed to bring you up to speed… Trade war to dominate meeting with premiers, PM The growing trade war with the United States will be top of the agenda when Canada's premiers meet with Prime Minister Mark Carney today. The premiers say they want to hear more about Carney's plans to respond to U.S. President Donald Trump's Aug. 1 deadline to get a trade deal done. In a letter to Carney on July 10, Trump threatened to impose 35-per-cent tariffs on Canadian goods by Aug. 1, setting a new deadline for trade talks that were supposed to have wrapped up by now. Carney said last week a trade deal with the U.S. will likely include some tariffs, and that he expects talks to intensify ahead of the Aug. 1 deadline. The premiers also say they hope to learn more about possible nation-building projects Carney is considering. Here's what else we're watching… Thousands fled Jasper wildfire one year ago Today marks one year since roughly 25,000 tourists and residents of Jasper, Alta., were forced to flee on a single highway, after several runaway fires were discovered in Jasper National Park. There's expected to be solemn reflection in the beloved mountain town, as events are held to remember the evacuation and the flames that incinerated neighbourhoods two days later. A third of the town's structures were destroyed despite firefighters' best efforts. It's estimated about 2,000 people were displaced by the fire. A ceremony is scheduled with Mayor Richard Ireland and federal Emergency Management Minister Eleanor Olszewski. Volunteers missing work to fight Newfoundland fire Volunteer firefighters are on the front lines of a roaring wildfire that has forced hundreds to flee their homes in rural Newfoundland, and some battling the flames are missing work to be there. Jason Chaulk says he was supposed to fly on Monday for Saskatchewan, where he is a rotational worker at a mine. But the volunteer mayor and deputy fire chief in Musgrave Harbour, N.L., says he stayed home to fight the fire and help his community. Chaulk says others in the 30-member volunteer fire crew have flown home from rotational jobs to be on the ground helping out. The wildfire near Musgrave Harbour ignited Saturday and officials ordered residents to evacuate the following day when it crept within a kilometre of the town. Why 'consent' videos show misconceptions about law As five former Canadian world junior hockey players await a ruling in their sexual assault trial, legal experts say videos shown in court of the complainant saying she was OK with what had happened highlight a broader misunderstanding of consent and sexual assault law in Canada. Two cellphone videos in which the woman says she's 'OK with this' and that 'it was all consensual' were presented as evidence during the trial of Michael McLeod, Carter Hart, Alex Formenton, Dillon Dube, and Callan Foote. All five men have pleaded not guilty to sexual assault after an encounter in a London, Ont., hotel room in the early morning hours of June 19, 2018. McLeod has also pleaded not guilty to an additional charge of being a party to the offence of sexual assault. Ontario Superior Court Justice Maria Carroccia is expected to deliver her ruling on Thursday in the case that saw consent emerge as a central issue. Video statements such as the short clips shown in this trial aren't necessarily evidence of consent, said University of Ottawa law professor Daphne Gilbert. Lisa Dufraimont, a law professor at York University, said such videos could also be seen as hearsay because they don't contain statements made under oath in court. Alta. mom wants all eligible to get measles shot Months after fearing she would lose her baby girl to measles, Morgan Birch says she wants Canadians to educate themselves more about the importance of vaccines. Birch's daughter, Kimie Fukuta-Birch, was too young to be eligible for the vaccine, which is not routinely given to children under a year old. But she feels her baby would not have been infected if more people around her had received the vaccine. Birch, who lives in Fort Saskatchewan, Alta., said she is also worried that her daughter may suffer long-term health complications as a result of her getting measles at such a young age. Alberta has become a hot spot for measles, with the province reporting nearly 1,380 infections since the beginning of March. This is more than the total number of cases reported in the United States. This report by The Canadian Press was first published July 22, 2025.
