US and Canada Signal Imminent Trade Deal Amid Tariff Threat

The United States and Canada have indicated that a final trade agreement could be reached soon, though specific details have yet to be disclosed. The announcement comes as President Trump had threatened to impose steep 50 percent tariffs on a broad range of Canadian goods starting Wednesday. Both sides appear to be under pressure to resolve the dispute before the new levies take effect. The lack of concrete details has left markets and observers uncertain about the scope and terms of any potential deal.
