U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick took an “aggressive” position against Canada’s auto manufacturing sector, Global News has learned, during a private discussion at a summit focusing on the relationship between the two countries.
Lutnick, who was speaking virtually at the US-Canada Summit hosted by BMO and Eurasia Group, suggested the Trump administration is increasingly focused on vehicle assembly based in the United States, according to multiple sources who heard the discussion.
