Trudeau: No Trade Deal Allowing US Firms to Buy Canadian Newspapers, TV

Canada won't sign a free trade deal that would allow U.S. firms to buy Canadian newspapers or TV stations, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau told reporters Monday. Meanwhile, “There’s good will on all sides,” said Foreign Minister Chrystia Freeland regarding negotiations on the North American Free Trade Agreement. But she noted negotiators will stand up for “national identity,” and there are cultural exemptions for Canadian radio, TV, newspaper and film.
