‘Deseret Voices’ Episode 47 — Tariff tensions: Is Canada done being America’s nice neighbor?

When the United States, Canada and Mexico signed their current free-trade agreement, it was hailed as a blueprint for North American economic strength. President Donald Trump himself called it a “great deal.”

Today, that agreement is being pushed to the brink in an escalating trade war.

The Honorable Mary Ng was at the center of those historic talks as Canada’s Minister of International Trade. Having helped craft the very trade deal now being challenged, she brings an unmatched perspective to this cross-border crisis.

She joins Jane Clayson Johnson on this episode of the “Deseret Voices” podcast to discuss where the economic pain will be felt on both sides of the border, whether this fight could drag on for years, and if the U.S./Canada relationship will ever be the same.
