The Minister of Commerce of Canada and the United States, Dominic Lieblack, said on Thursday that the federal government is still invalidating the hope that the two countries would be able to reach an agreement on punishing the American tariff before the Canada and Mexico Agreement (CusMA) for review comes next year.
