Lutnick slams Canada's trade strategy

Lutnick's remarks were prompted by suggestions from Canadian officials that time is on their side in upcoming negotiations.

The Commerce Secretary characterized the strategy as 'nuts' and vowed to 're-imagine' the trade deal to better serve American interests.

The escalating rhetoric has raised concerns about the stability of the economic partnership between the two nations.

Canadian leaders have pushed back, defending their strategy and highlighting the mutual benefits of the current agreement.
