The US and Canada are “very close” to settling their tariff standoff, according to the White House. “The negotiations have picked up; they’re gathering steam,” said Kevin Hassett, director of the White House National Economic Council, to Fox News’ “The Sunday Briefing. ” President Trump had slapped a roughly 50% tariff on about $20 billion in Canadian goods such as beer, cheese and electronics in late August after negotiations between the countries broke down.
