“Prime Minister Mark Carney said his team walked away from trade negotiations Friday after the American side made unacceptable requests that would have infringed on Canadian sovereignty.

Speaking with reporters Saturday morning on Parliament Hill, Mr. Carney offered several examples of U.S. demands that Canada could not accept, including the fine print related to potential agreements on steel, aluminum and autos, and language that he said would have restricted Canada’s trade negotiations with other countries.

“There were some things we wouldn’t do. We were not prepared to compromise Canada’s sovereignty or to undermine key industries,” he said. “In short, they asked too much, and they offered too little.””
