The comfortable era of predictable trade and multilateral rules between Canada and USA appears to be over. As we approach the critical 2026 joint review of the Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement (CUSMA), Canada faces a structural “rupture” in its most vital economic relationship. From the 50% tariffs on steel to the persistent friction in BC’s forestry sector, the old playbook no longer applies. Join a panel of leading experts from the Allard School of Law, Vancouver School of Economics, Faculty of Forestry and Political Science to move beyond the headlines and consider new geopolitical realities and their impact on Canada as a nation and the daily lives of individual Canadians.
