Canada says it will resume trade talks with the United States "when it's appropriate," according to a Canadian official at the G20 in Johannesburg. Talks were suspended after an anti-tariff advertisement from Ontario prompted a pause in negotiations. The official indicated conversations with President Trump could occur in the next two weeks and emphasized Canada remains open to dialogue. Ottawa is pushing to roll back U.S. tariffs on steel, aluminum and autos.
