Rudyard Griffiths and Sean Speer discuss the formal launch of CUSMA consultations by the Trump administration as the first step toward its renegotiation. They examine revelations from U.S. Ambassador Pete Hoekstra that a broader "grand bargain" economic and security agreement may have been on the table but it ultimately fell apart. They look ahead to whether Canada may have missed an opportunity for a comprehensive bilateral deal and whether key industries, such as the auto sector, will be negatively impacted as a result.
