Canada Rescinds Digital-Services Tax to Salvage Trade Discussions With U.S.

Carney, Trump will try to reach an agreement by July 21, Canadian spokeswoman says

Canada announced late on Sunday that it is rescinding a digital-services tax in a bid to salvage trade discussions with the U.S. after President Trump paused talks on Friday.

Canada’s finance department was set to collect billions of dollars from U.S. tech companies starting on Monday, when payments were due under a digital-services tax that Canada’s Liberal government implemented last year, under former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
