The United States’ top trade official says the Trump administration isn’t going to give Canada credit for its trade concessions.
Jamieson Greer says he’s glad Canada dropped its digital services tax and “rolled back” its Online Streaming Act but they “don’t really get credit for doing something bad and then undoing it.”
Prime Minister Mark Carney took those actions in an attempt to move trade talks with the United States forward.
Washington and Mexico have launched formal negotiations on the Canada-U.S.-Mexico agreement (CUSMA) on trade but no such talks have started with Ottawa.

Speaking at the Aspen Security Forum in Washington Wednesday, Greer says he’s in weekly contact with his Canadian counterparts and he’s offered Ottawa proposals to “put us in a better position.”
He says if U.S. President Donald Trump and Carney reach an understanding, they can get over “the hump” to some sort of trade agreement.
I hope this buffoon gets what’s coming to him. I’m so sick of the Yanks and their entitlement.
Canada should cease ALL relations with the US.
Why does Canada even bother with these Waco taco’s ? Can they even spell negotiate, let alone understand that concept?
Then reintroduce them. If they don’t help with negotiations, why not? The boy really knows how to pout. Give him a soother, seems like he needs one.
Further incentive to seek alternative markets. Have to admire our negotiators in putting up with them. That’s some demonstration of patience, dealing with representatives of a disintegrating democracy.
I know, Canada is so bad. We should all go stand in a corner and hit ourselves with Boy Scout manuals. We may have to borrow some from Jamie. That is if he has any left after the book burnings.
Piss on everything this orange snot rag lover says about Canada.The usa is imploding to a third world country and I couldn’t be happier.
Can someone slap Greer in his stupid face. Lol
Put the trade irritants back on
no help to us for taking they off, shut of the power water and oil.
All the LPC was trying to do is make life even more expensive for Canadians. Their loyal voters love the long food bank lines they’ve created for themselves.
I like to play with myself as I fantasize about Donnie. Elbows up
