## Resource

Trump’s not happy with CUSMA, calling for its termination or a fresh deal — especially since it lets the U.S. walk away after six years. But U.S. Trade Rep Jamieson Greer says the deal’s foundation is strong, and any country can exit with six months’ notice. Tensions simmer, yet talks continue — notably over U.S. tariffs hurting Canada’s forestry sector, where provinces like B.C. push for reinvestment as the U.S. turns to Russian lumber. Canadian officials, including Trade Minister LeBlanc, met Greer to keep lines open, focusing on easing trade friction while the future of CUSMA remains uncertain.
