Trump admits adding last-minute conditions to Canada trade talks

ctvnews.ca — August 26, 2026 at 02:03 PM UTC

U.S. President Donald Trump admitted Tuesday he added new conditions to trade negotiations with Canada at the 11th hour, saying "that sounds like me" when asked about Canadian officials' claims of late-minute demands. Canada announced dollar-for-dollar counter-tariffs on roughly $28 billion worth of U.S. goods, set to take effect Sept. 8, after Trump imposed 50 per cent tariffs on Canadian products. The White House released a statement accusing Canada of trade abuses, while California Gov. Gavin Newsom predicted Trump would reverse course within days. Trump has threatened to double auto tariffs to 50 per cent starting Jan. 1. Ontario Premier Doug Ford said he advised Prime Minister Mark Carney not to accept the U.S. deal, calling it "no deal is better than a bad deal."
