Canada's trade team downplays chances of deal with Trump by Aug. 1
With the clock ticking on U.S. President Donald Trump's threat to boost tariffs on some Canadian exports to 35 per cent starting Aug. 1, Canada's top trade negotiators are downplaying the likelihood of reaching a deal by that deadline. Dominic LeBlanc, minister responsible for Canada-U.S. trade, and Canada's ambassador to the U.S., Kirsten Hillman, wrapped up two days of meetings with Republican senators. These included a brief sit-down between LeBlanc and Howard Lutnick, the U.S. secretary of commerce and Trump's point man on tariffs. We've made progress, but we have a lot of work in front of us, LeBlanc told reporters outside a Senate office building on Thursday. LeBlanc said he had a productive, cordial discussion with Lutnick and plans to return to Washington next week. He also added some caveats about the path to reaching a deal. We're going to continue to work toward the Aug. 1 deadline,' he said. But all of these deadlines are with the understanding that we'll take the time necessary to get the best deal that we think is in the interest of the Canadian economy and Canadian workers." Hillman, who was appointed Canada's chief negotiator with the U.S., also suggested an agreement with the Trump administration is not imminent. WATCH | Dominic LeBlanc speaks after meeting Trump's point man on tariffs: It's important for us to recognize that there is a time when the deal is the right deal, and it's important for us to be in a position to continue negotiating until we get to that point, she said. Their comments are the latest evidence that Prime Minister Mark Carney's government is not in a rush to sign a deal with the U.S. Carney said Tuesday that his objective is "not to reach a deal whatever it costs (new window) ." Following Carney's meeting with Canada's premiers earlier this week, Nova Scotia's Tim Houston said the prime minister isn't dead set on signing a deal by the deadline. Other countries reach tariff deals with Trump This comes amid Trump's announcements this week of framework agreements on tariffs struck with Japan (new window) and Indonesia, and reports the U.S. is closing in on a deal with the European Union. Canada may be less panicked than other trading partners about the Aug. 1 deadline because only a small portion of Canada's exports to the U.S. would be affected by Trump's threat of 35 per cent tariffs. That's because most goods enter the U.S. tariff-free (new window) under the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement, or CUSMA. Officials say LeBlanc and Hillman met with five Republican senators in Washington: Kevin Cramer (North Dakota), Roger Marshall (Kansas), Shelley Moore Capito (West Virginia), Tim Scott (South Carolina) and Todd Young (Indiana). Another Republican senator, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, told reporters in Washington on Thursday that the U.S. shares a lot of security and economic interests with Canada and shouldn't treat it as just another country when it comes to tariffs. "I wish that I could say it feels good, that this is all going to be taken care of before the first of August, but I'm not sensing that," said Murkowski, who visited Ottawa on Monday (new window) to meet Carney and some of his cabinet ministers.

Copper mine prioritized by B.C. government gets green light to run for an extra 18 years
Teck Resources Ltd. says its board has given the green light to extending the life of Canada's biggest copper mine by almost two decades, with an investment of up to $2.4 billion. With the Highland Valley Copper Mine Life Extension project south of Kamloops, B.C., the Vancouver-based miner aims to produce 132,000 tonnes of copper per year on average and extend its life from 2028 to 2046. "This is a lower risk and lower complexity brownfield project," chief executive Jonathan Price told analysts on a conference call Thursday. The company bills the project as the largest critical minerals investment in B.C. history. The extension is one of 18 resource projects the province announced in February it would be fast-tracking to reduce reliance on the United States. The capital cost is expected to range from $2.1 billion to $2.4 billion, up from an earlier estimate of $1.8 billion to $2 billion. The cost increase was a result of additional engineering work meant to optimize the project. "This now includes project-level contingencies, accounts for inflation, input cost escalation, and the impact of potential tariffs on construction materials and reflects the accelerated procurement of mobile equipment originally planned for later project phases," Price said. Major permitting has wrapped up, engineering is 70 per cent complete and construction is set to begin in a few weeks, he added. "We have operated Highland Valley for decades and have successfully executed several mine-life extensions there." The project is "foundational" to Teck's ambitions to double production of copper — "an energy transition metal" — by the end of the decade, he said. Teck estimates 2,900 jobs and $435 million in additional gross domestic product will be generated during construction. In a Teck news release, B.C. Premier David Eby called the investment "just one example of how British Columbia can drive our country's economy forward even in challenging times." Federal Natural Resources Minister Tim Hodgson said projects like the Highland Valley extension put Canada on the map. "By extending the life of Canada's largest copper mine, we are strengthening our critical minerals sector here at home and becoming the international supplier of choice when it comes to critical metals and minerals," he said in the release. Chief Christine Walkem of Cook's Ferry Indian Band said in the release that the decision is a "defining moment" for both industry and local communities participating in the Citxw Nlaka'pamux Assembly (CNA). The CNA manages and administers agreements between Teck and eight First Nations bands. "Our communities are not bystanders to development — we are decision-makers. We are forging a new path with Industry and the Crown for how major projects unfold in our territory: grounded in respect, guided by our values and focused on long-term benefit for our people," said Walkem, who chairs the CNA's board. "As the project enters construction, we remain firm in our expectations. Our voices must continue to be heard. Our laws must continue to guide the process. Our people must continue to share in the benefits — now, and for generations to come." Teck shares were trading almost six per cent lower on the TSX on Thursday afternoon at $49.42. Also Thursday, Teck said its profit from continuing operations attributable to shareholders amounted to $206 million or 41 cents per diluted share for the quarter ended June 30. The result compared with a profit of $21 million or four cents per diluted share in the same quarter last year. On an adjusted basis, Teck says its profit from continuing operations amounted to 38 cents per diluted share for its latest quarter, up from 12 cents per diluted share a year earlier.
