‘US-Canada relations'
This is apropos a letter to the Editor from this writer carried by the newspaper yesterday. It is important to note that until recently, the two countries were bound by one of the strongest economic partnerships in the world. In 2024, total goods trade between them reached USD 761.8 billion, with US exports to Canada worth USD 349.9 billion and imports from Canada at USD 411.9 billion. Agriculture alone accounted for USD 28.4 billion in US exports, including nearly USD 800 million in dairy. Canada sent USD 124 billion worth of energy, machinery, and vehicles to the United States, while the USMCA trade agreement favored US dairy producers by granting 3.6 percent tariff-free access to Canada's USD 15 billion dairy market and removing restrictions that had long frustrated American farmers. This trade was not just numbers—it represented communities, livelihoods, and a shared prosperity that outsiders often described as two halves of one whole. That reality began to unravel early in President Trump's second term when he abruptly imposed tariffs on Canadian goods, starting at 10 percent and then climbing to 35 percent, with threats of even higher duties on dairy. In public speeches, he floated the idea of Canada becoming the 'cherished 51st State' of the United States. The comments were not taken lightly in Ottawa. Prime Minister Mark Carney declared that 'Canada is not for sale and will never be the 51st state.' Former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau described the remarks as humiliating, while Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland called the US actions 'economic warfare.' Words quickly turned into confrontation, and soon a trade war was underway. Copyright Business Recorder, 2025

Futures spread up 17.41pc
KARACHI: The futures spread at the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) widened sharply during the week, rising to 17.41 percent from 13.53 percent a week earlier, even as overall activity in the derivatives market slowed. The increase of 389 basis points reflected continued investor interest in leveraged positions amid an earnings-driven rally. However, both volumes and traded value in the futures counter registered a steep decline. Average daily turnover fell 18 percent to 98.8 million shares compared with 120.6 million shares in the preceding week. In value terms, futures activity slipped nearly 17 percent, settling at Rs9.1 billion from Rs11 billion earlier. Market watchers noted that while investors appeared selective in taking fresh leveraged exposure, the wider spread suggested confidence in near-term momentum despite softer participation.
