The Globe and Mail reports in its Wednesday, Sept. 19, edition that United States Majority Whip Steve Scalise said Tuesday: "There is a growing frustration with many in Congress regarding Canada's negotiating tactics. Canada does not seem to be ready or willing to make the concessions that are necessary for a fair and high-standard agreement." The Globe's Adrian Morrow and Steven Chase write that the warning from Mr. Scalise comes ahead of Foreign Minister Chrystia Freeland's return to Washington on Wednesday in a bid to wrap up the North American free-trade agreement negotiations. It also coincides with a mission by Ontario Premier Doug Ford to the U.S. capital, where he will press Canadian negotiators to get a deal. Both the Trump administration and Mexican officials have threatened to proceed with a two-way pact if Ottawa does not agree to a deal. Intense negotiations between Canada and the U.S. have focused on U.S. demands for more access to the protected Canadian dairy market, tougher protections for pharmaceutical patents and restrictions on Canadian companies bidding on U.S. government contracts. Canada is fighting to preserve dispute resolution provisions and protections for cultural industries.
