The tentative trade deal between the US and Canada would lower tariffs on certain Canadian exports of steel and aluminum to 25% and cut duties on Canadian auto exports to 15%, according to people familiar with the matter. Tariffs on the non-US content in autos exported from Canada would be reduced to 15% from 25%, and the move on steel and aluminum under discussion would generally halve US tariffs on imports of the two metals. Bloomberg's Derek Decloet joins to discuss.
