Prime Minister Mark Carney spoke with Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum on Friday, April 24, 2026, as the two countries prepare for the formal review of the Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement (CUSMA) later this year.
According to a readout from the Prime Minister's Office, the leaders discussed a range of topics, including the upcoming CUSMA review and shared priorities for North American competitiveness. They reaffirmed their commitment to the trilateral trade pact, which is scheduled for a joint review in 2026.
The call comes as Canada and Mexico face potential tariff threats from the United States. President Donald Trump has previously threatened 25% tariffs on Canadian and Mexican goods, though those have been paused until at least April 2, 2026, pending negotiations.
Both leaders emphasized the importance of maintaining strong economic ties and addressing shared challenges such as supply chain resilience and border security. No specific agreements were announced following the call.
