Experts say Canada has a strong case to challenge U.S. tariffs on Canadian goods under the Canada -U.S.-Mexico free trade agreement.

The question is how quickly any decision may come through the process and whether the U.K. would respect the outcome.

Canada could launch a challenge which would prompt mandatory consultations between countries within 30 days of filing the complaint.

If there’s no resolution through that step, the next would be to establish a dispute settlement panel.

A full abandoning of the treaty would be much more significant than Trump ’s tariffs, which he claims to be doing over national security concerns at the border.

While the claims are tenuous at best, Sosnow said, they’re at least still within the framework of the agreement.
