Canada will remove its retaliatory tariffs on a long list of US products that comply with the existing North American trade deal, seeking to lower tensions with the White House.
Corporations won’t stop if they don’t want to. Why? They pass on the cost to the consumer anyways.
If we have to drop the tariffs on CUSMA products to have any chance that the USA isn’t dropping out I am good with that. CUSMA is a great deal in today’s world and unless the USA drops it it’ll be good until 2036. Let’s take that.

That’s exactly what I was mentioning in my earlier comment about CUSMA we have the best deal. Let’s stand down on the tariffs and not jeopardize that. We Canadians can still do a lot of harm to them and we have. The gov can’t stop us and the gov can’t be nailed for that in the negotiations.

Correct, and then the consumers are less likely to buy them and will pick the ones that are made from non-tariffed materials.
The point of tariffs is to lower purchases from countries who are waging economic warfare on us, even when we can’t directly see the source.
Tariffs have never worked when broadly applied.
