Canada is facing tariffs on its steel, aluminum, auto and lumber exports, but minister Dominic LeBlanc didn't say whether quota limits in those sectors are part of the negotiations. 

The world’s two largest economies have yet to reach a trade deal, and manufacturers in China have been seeking alternative markets for their goods as they brace for higher U.S. tariffs.

The country’s trade shortfall with the world was C$4.9 billion ($3.5 billion) in July, according to Statistics Canada data released Sept. 4.

The surge in imports was driven by industrial supplies, which rose to the highest level in four months amid a surge in inbound shipments of gold.

The appeal calls for putting the case on a highly expedited schedule with arguments in early November, according to filings reviewed by Bloomberg.

The Canadian prime minister said more meetings are taking place in Washington involving officials including Michael Sabia, Canada’s top civil servant.

“If we don’t win that case, our country is going to suffer so greatly,” Trump told reporters in the Oval Office. “These deals are all done; I guess we’d have to unwind them.”

“Please give my warmest regards to Vladimir Putin, and Kim Jong Un, as you conspire against The United States of America,” Trump said on his Truth Social site.

Trump told reporters that the U.S. would appeal to the high court for relief as soon as Sept. 3 because “it would be a devastation for our country” if the appeals court ruling was left in place.

“President Trump has not put tariffs on China because those negotiations are ongoing. And the war in Ukraine is certainly part of that discussion,” U.S. Ambassador Matthew Whitaker said.
