Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney says negotiations with the United States on a possible trade deal are moving forward, despite an ongoing tariff dispute. In a statement to reporters in Manila, he describes a recent conversation with President Donald Trump, U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer, White House chief of staff Stephen Miller, and other U.S. officials.
The coverage places this development in a broader push by Carney to advance Canada’s economic ties. One outlet links the “progress” on the bilateral front to an effort to expand market reach in Asia, while another focuses primarily on the fact of progress in the trade talks without additional detail. Across reports, the common thread is Carney’s claim that the negotiations are advancing, even as tariffs between Canada and the US remain a central issue.
