Canada Can Reach A Trade Deal When It's Ready to Say 'Yes', US Trade Representative Greer Says
MT newswire2026/10/08 14:3710:37 AM EDT, 10/08/2026 (MT Newswires) -- Canada can reach a trade deal with the United States when it is ready to say "yes," US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said on Thursday, adding that the US is maintaining its position in negotiations. "When the Canadians want to get to yes, obviously we'll be there ready to talk," said Greer in an interview with CNBC. Greer said Canada was partly focused on the recent Quebec provincial election, while US officials remained in frequent contact with Canadian counterparts at the "highest" levels. The Canadian government's focus was the Monday Quebec provincial election, which had caused a "little bit of preoccupation" as it was won by the separatist Parti Quebecois (PQ) party, added Greer. The PQ obtained the most seats at the election but didn't get a majority in the provincial assembly. "I think we're holding fast with the Canadians," Greer also said.
