CANADA EYES U.S. DUTIES REMEDY

-

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is setting his sights on the end of the month as the next target date for reaching a trade-andtariff détente with the United States. All three countries are expected to take part in a signing ceremony for the U.S.-MexicoCana­da Agreement during the two-day G20 summit, which gets underway Nov. 30 in Buenos Aires — although Canada has warned it will be a low-key, low-level affair if steel and aluminum tariffs are still in place. There’s still time to change that, Trudeau suggested Monday during a news conference in Paris. “I absolutely brought it up,” Trudeau said of his discussion­s with U.S. President Donald Trump during a dinner Friday organized by French President Emmanuel Macron. “The issue of steel and aluminum tariffs continues to be a concern to Canadians, like it is of concern to many American citizens and companies,” Trudeau said.
