OTTAWA – International Trade Minister Maninder Sidhu had a pull-aside chat with U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer Wednesday during the G20 trade ministers’ meeting in Milwaukee, Sidhu’s office says.
A “pull aside” is an informal conversation between officials on the sidelines of international meetings.
Discussing trade tensions between Canada and the United States on Bloomberg news today, Greer said the administration of U.S. President Donald Trump is open to making a deal with Canada but is “not inclined to go to zero tariffs.”
Greer said the question remains whether Canada is willing to say “yes on some of these things.”
Greer added his main point of contact on trade talks is Canada-U.S. Trade Minister Dominic LeBlanc, with whom he speaks frequently.
Sidhu is scheduled to have formal one-on-one meetings with his counterparts from the European Union, India and Brazil today.
This report by The Canadian Press was first published Oct. 1, 2026.
