Jamieson Greer today at the Iowa State Fair: Straight talk on Canada that doesn’t sound great for Ottawa USTR Jamieson Greer took questions today in Des Moines. The Canada portion was blunt Key points & quotes: * Canada had “completely free access to the US Market for many decades.” The US is now “trying to control our borders… for imported goods and services.” * “For decades, we have had major trade issues with Canada… There are a lot of issues… any potential resolution has to include all of these or a pathway forward for them.” * Again he says only two countries have retaliated against US trade measures: “the People’s Republic of China and Canada. That’s not the kind of company you really want to be running in.” Specific Canadian actions he flagged as the legal/policy basis for the coming Section 338 duties: * Bans on the sale of American wine and spirits in Canada * Uneven dairy treatment with supply management: “In some instances, Canada gives the EU better treatment on dairy than they give us their best customer.” * Procurement and other longstanding issues “These tariffs that are coming in… are a response to Canadian retaliatory measures, like the kind of things that China would do” On whether the duties could still be paused: the measures are tied directly to Canada’s actions, so those have to be resolved first Broader framing: * “This is not a trade war. We have domestic supply chains we’re trying to protect… It’s not Canada specific. It’s… globally.” * “Ultimately, we are accountable to American voters. * The president was elected… on a platform of protecting American industry. So that is first and foremost what we need to do.” * If a country retaliates, “we’re obviously not going to tolerate that. We’ll take action.” Greer even fielded a question in French before pivoting back to the same message: the Section 338 duties rest on Canada’s own measures, and those need to be fixed Constructive talks continue, but the hierarchy is clear: America’s trade policy first. Canada can come along... or not Jamieson Greer
