The Canadian Agri-Food Policy Institute (CAPI), in partnership with RealAgriculture, this week hosted an emergency trade webinar. The session brought together leading agricultural policy experts, government advisors, and industry leaders to discuss the recent, unexpected breakdown in Canada-U.S. trade negotiations following Canada's decision to suspend talks and retaliate against newly imposed U.S. tariffs.
The broad discussion focused heavily on the immediate and long-term economic repercussions of the escalating tariff war, specifically touching on Section 338 and 232 tariffs, retaliatory dollar-for-dollar duties, and provincial liquor bans. Panelists analyzed the root causes of the negotiation stall, ranging from U.S. demands regarding steel, auto, and supply-managed dairy TRQs to Canadian sovereignty concerns and export tax debates. Additionally, the experts evaluated the resulting market uncertainty, broader macroeconomic effects such as rising bond yields and inflation, and strategies for Canadian producers to build resilience through market diversification and value-added processing.
While trade tensions present significant short-term market uncertainty, cross-border agricultural supply chains remain deeply integrated, making a long-term resolution vital for both economies.
On this webinar, hear from:
Tyler McCann, Managing Director, Canadian Agri-Food Policy Institute (CAPI)
Shaun Haney, Founder, RealAgriculture
Lisa Raitt, Member of the Prime Minister's Advisory Council, Vice-Chair at CIBC, & Former Cabinet Minister
Al Mussell, Senior Research Fellow, Canadian Agri-Food Policy Institute
Dr. Cal Bricker, CEO, Spirits Canada
Joe Glauber, Senior Research Fellow Emeritus, International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) & Former Chief Economist at USDA
