The Trump administration's top trade negotiator, U.S. Trade Representative
Greer, told CBC the United States should consider banning certain Canadians
goods, adding a new threat to the Washington‑Ottawa trade dispute. Greer cited
Canadian bans on wine and spirits, limits on types of vehicles the U.S. can
export to Canada, and provincial prohibitions on procurement of some goods and
services; he said the U.S. has not used such bans but that “maybe we need to do
so.” Greer’s office later posted the remarks on its social media accounts.
