The Globe and Mail reports in its Tuesday, Feb. 14, edition that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau won personal assurances from President Donald Trump during a meeting on Monday that the United States only wants to tweak the North American free-trade provisions that govern commerce with Canada. The Globe's Robert Fife writes that Mr. Trudeau steered clear of controversial subjects, opting instead to win the President over by convincing him Canada can help his economic agenda. Mr. Trudeau came to the White House with the overarching aim of obtaining U.S. guarantees that Canada's export-driven economy would not be sideswiped by the President's plan to renegotiate NAFTA. Mr. Trump said: "Our relationship with Canada is outstanding. We are going to work together to make it even better." Mr. Trump, however, said the U.S. will be seeking more "reciprocity" in trade with Canada, which could include demands that U.S. firms are able to bid on provincial and municipal projects. Mr. Trump reassured Mr. Trudeau that he has nothing to fear from the new administration in Washington. Mr. Trump said his main aim in revamping NAFTA was to take aim at Mexico. No schedule was set for when NAFTA talks would begin.
