Canadian Markets
Two U.S. senators have sent a letter
to Trade Representative Katherine Tai urging the federal government
"get tough" with Canada for failing to honor its obligations under the
U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement.
- Senators Ron Wyden
(D-OR) and Mike Crapo (R-ID) claim that Canada's plan to tax digital
services from the U.S. is discriminatory and would lead to an advantage
for Canadian content.
- They also claim that Canada is unfairly limiting access to its dairy market.
- Canada
and Mexico have also had issues with how the U.S. interprets the
trilateral trade agreement. A panel ruled against the U.S. regarding a
dispute over the origin of automotive components earlier this month.
