Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney called the negotiations with the United States "complex" when he responded to the announcement of US President Donald Trump to terminate all trade talks with Canada with potential new tariffs.
"We'll continue to conduct these complex negotiations in the best interest of Canadians," Carney said to local media. "It's a negotiation."
Trump announced Friday that the United States would terminate all trade talks with Canada due to Canada's digital services tax on US tech companies, Xinhua news agency reported.
Canada's digital services tax on American technology companies is a direct and blatant attack on the United States, said Trump in a post on social media.
Set to take effect on June 30, the digital services tax would have US companies like Amazon, Google, Meta, Uber and Airbnb pay a three percent levy on revenue from Canadian users.
Canada and the United States have been in negotiations to get Trump to lift the tariffs on Canadian goods, which have already led to major economic shrinking.
Canada's real gross domestic product edged down 0.1 per cent in April, according to Statistics Canada.

I wonder who No Cards Carney is going to continue negotiating with.
Really, there's nothing we need from Canada. Other than oil. But we can just buy more from Saudi Arabia.
“Hello. Who is this?”
“Canada”
“We’re not home.”
Click.
We have plenty of our own oil. Under Trump we'll be able to get it.

Trump: help the Canadian people abd expose Carney’s mass immigration fiasco. Expose China’s power over Canada.
Daddy.
What does Canada make that we cannot make?
Nothing.
Correct.
He’s a central banker. He’s in charge of the loonies. This clown is so obtuse.
He’s a bell end in his vernacular.
Name the two seasons of Canada.
Winter, and July. Eh?
The current Canadian government thinks President Trump of the United States is trying to screw them, when in fact the President is a man both of peace and intellect and realizes that Canada isn’t going anywhere at least in the near future, and seeks a more equitable long-term relationship that benefits both countries, but without the extreme lopsided protectionism currently practiced by Canada. It’s that damned simple.
Who elected that guy PM anyway?
That little video clip looks like something that could trigger a seizure in epileptics.
Oh darn! No more Molson? 😂
The problem that Canada, Russia, China, Ukraine, Iran, the EU have is they don’t understand what Trump means when he offers to negotiate.
He expects people to operate in good faith and try to come up with mutually beneficial and fair deals. Those who don’t accept the offer get slapped down.
