USCIB Hosts the Canadian Chamber of Commerce Delegation to Discuss Trade Outlooks Post Mid-Term Elections

USCIB was pleased to host the Canadian Chamber of Commerce on November 10 as part of its delegation visit to Washington, DC. Canadian companies were in town to attend the B20 Summit meetings in DC as well as engage in panel discussions on the new dynamics in bilateral relations following the US mid-term elections.

Whitney Baird, President and CEO, USCIB, welcomed the Canadian Chamber as USCIB's sister association, both serving as affiliates to the International Chamber of Commerce and Business at OECD (BIAC). She spoke on a panel of political experts, Demystifying the US Trade Agenda: Where It's At and Where It's Going, explaining the new congressional dynamic and its impact on the Administration's trade agenda. All shared the message that tariffs are the new norm, with companies on both sides of the border focused on ameliorating volatility while working together to safeguard supply chains and secure renewal of USMCA in 2027.
