WASHINGTON/OTTAWA (Reuters) – The United States and Canada on Friday announced a deal to remove tariffs on Canadian steel and aluminum in exchange for new curbs to keep dumped metals from China and other countries out of the United States, paving the way for a similar pact with Mexico.
The quota-free deal will eliminate the U. S. metals tariffs within 48 hours as well as Canada’s retaliatory tariffs on some $12 billion worth of U. S. products, including pork, beef and bourbon.
