PM Carney says it’s unlikely any trade deal with U-S would be tariff-free

The prime minister thinks it’s unlikely a U-S trade deal will be completely free of any tariffs.  Mark Carney has told reporters the evidence suggests U-S President Donald Trump will not make any deals without some tariffs.  Carney says the government will focus on building stronger auto, aluminum and copper sectors — all of which have been targeted by U-S tariffs.  The prime minister met with cabinet Tuesday — a meeting scheduled after Trump laid out his plan for 35 per cent tariffs on Canada, starting August 1st.   Carney is to meet next week with Premier Rob Lantz and the other Premiers.
