How Canada-U.S. trade talks could shape the potential recession risk
As the deadline looms for a new trade deal between Canada and the U.S., economists say what the deal contains could determine a key possibility — how bad a potential recession could be. On Monday, Prime Minister Mark Carney said he would only sign a deal that was 'a good deal for Canada' and that 'negotiations are at an intense phase' towards a new trade deal with the U.S. If one isn't reached by Aug. 1, U.S. President Donald Trump has threatened to hit Canada with more tariffs of 35 per cent. At the same time, economists are watching closely for the risk of a recession. 'We are so far sticking to a view that we see a very shallow technical recession in Canada for the second quarter, third quarter. Very mild contraction,' said Sal Guatieri, director and senior economist at BMO Capital Markets. Story continues below advertisement However, that depends on one key caveat. 1:57 'Trump ate von der Leyen for breakfast': EU leaders react to 'unbalanced' trade deal with US 'That assumes we do work out a trade deal with the U.S. and it keeps that average effective tariff rate close to six per cent (and) does not pile on too many new sectoral duties in the months ahead,' he added. Get daily National news Get the day's top news, political, economic, and current affairs headlines, delivered to your inbox once a day. Sign up for daily National newsletter Sign Up By providing your email address, you have read and agree to Global News' Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy With a six per cent effective tariff rate, Canada's economy could potentially start recovering by the end of the year, Guatieri said. 'It does hurt, but it's manageable and something that Canadian businesses ultimately could adjust to and live with.' The reason the effective tariff rate on Canada is relatively low, at six per cent, is that goods that comply with the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement (CUSMA) were exempt from Trump's broad-based tariffs back in April. Story continues below advertisement Not everyone agrees that a recession is likely, either. 'We don't have a recessionary outlook again for later this year. If CUSMA exemptions do hold, which is what we're expecting right now, we don't expect there will be significant changes to the outlook either,' said Claire Fan, senior economist at RBC. 3:32 'It may seem like it's a long way (off)': Carney says Canada needs 'right' trade deal with U.S. While Canada is expecting a trade deal with some tariffs, Fan said CUSMA exemptions might help Canada avoid a worst-case scenario economic downturn since it puts it ahead of the U.S.'s other major trade partners. 'It reflects a comparative advantage as a key exporter to the United States. It's not so much about the exemptions themselves, but more so what it means for Canadian exporters relative to, let's say, exporters from Europe or from one of the other major U.S. trade partners,' she said. Story continues below advertisement If the status quo holds, Fan expects that the 'bulk of the damage is already done' to Canada's labour market. However, if Trump's tariffs on Canadian steel, aluminum and automobiles continue after Friday, those sectors could see further losses. 'It's a blow for the auto industry (and to) steel and aluminum. There will be some pain there, maybe further layoffs. But for the overall economy and other industries, it is a manageable tariff to absorb, Guatieri said. 4:59 Canada – U.S. trade negotiations ahead of deadline 'We are seeing very pronounced damage in sectors where you would expect damage to be showing up. These are largely very trade-exposed sectors. Manufacturing is one, and a lot of the related sectors, for example, warehousing and transportation,' Fan said. So far, the damage from tariffs has been most heavily localized in southern Ontario and Quebec, Fan said. Story continues below advertisement 'If you were to look at the unemployment rate in southern Ontario, it's approaching 10 to 11 per cent in Windsor and is really elevated in other parts like Peterborough as well. In Toronto, too, which is above where the national average is,' she said. If CUSMA exemptions hold, Guatieri expects much of the country to escape the worst effects of Trump's trade war. 'We think most of the rest of the country is somewhat insulated from this trade war. Unfortunately, Ontario and Quebec are not,' he said.

Protesters offer less-than-Friendly Manitoba welcome to U.S. ambassador to Canada
Dozens of protesters lined the streets outside the Winnipeg Art Gallery Tuesday afternoon, denouncing a Winnipeg Chamber of Commerce luncheon featuring the United States' ambassador to Canada. Waving signs and chanting slogans, the crowd — which grew to nearly 100 — slammed American foreign policy, accusing Ambassador Pete Hoekstra of representing an administration that promotes division and undermines global co-operation. Canada and the U.S. have been involved in contentious trade talks for months, and another of President Donald Trump's deadlines for imposing additional punishing tariffs on Canadian imports is quickly approaching on Thursday. Some demonstrators also took aim at the chamber itself for offering Hoekstra a platform during a politically fraught time, while others turned their criticism toward Prime Minister Mark Carney. 'Carney, Carney, you can't hide, we know you are on Trump's side!' some in the crowd shouted. The rally began with about 50 people just before noon outside the WAG on Memorial Boulevard, then shifted around the corner to St. Mary Avenue. There, protesters greeted arriving luncheon guests with chants, boos and pointed signage. 'We're here saying we need an independent foreign policy, we can't follow the U.S.,' said Sarah Brobridge, who was with the Winnipeg Coalition for Peace and Sovereignty. 'We can't follow them into the murderous, genocidal wars they're dragging us into. We're standing against the five per cent (of GDP contribution to NATO's) budget, which is going to rip away from social needs, housing and health care — everything that people need here (in Canada). And we're standing up against the U.S.'s decline into fascism.' The group also questioned the chamber's choice of speaker, arguing it should reflect on why it invited someone whose 'avowed purposes include making Canada an appendage of the U.S. war machine and to make Canada the 51st state.' The Free Press has requested comment from the chamber. Weekday Mornings A quick glance at the news for the upcoming day. Protesters also called out Premier Wab Kinew and Mayor Scott Gillingham, demanding answers for what they called 'silence' and a lack of criticism over Hoekstra's visit. 'I am opposed to American imperialism anywhere, and the fascist trends going on there and the threat that poses to Canada and the rest of the world,' said Ann LeTouche, who held a sign that said, 'Tariff this, sphincter face,' and another that read, 'Justifying mass murder is psychopathy.' LeTouche also critiqued the rally's focus, noting that some of the messaging veered off topic. 'We need to focus on the fact that this is a visit of an ambassador for a country that's threatened to invade us,' she said.
