Dominic LeBlanc: “I’m not thinking that the government of Canada is going to apologize for standing up for Canadian workers, Canadian…”

We told them that, for us, that was non-negotiable.

Our core focus is on what we can control: building strength at home, diversifying our partnerships abroad, and building Canada strong for all Canadians.

We look forward to further constructive U.S. clarifications on their other positions which would create the possibility of a mutually beneficial trade agreement that respects Canadian sovereignty.

We’re not negotiating detailed text as we were five, six weeks ago, but we remain in contact with them.
