Canada said it would rescind a digital-services tax in a bid to salvage trade discussions with the U.S. after President Trump paused talks on Friday. Canada’s finance department was set to collect billions of dollars from U.

But it wasn't just Trump pushing Carney to reconsider the tax. A nonprofit representing CEOs and leaders of some of Canada's biggest businesses, the Business Council of Canada, had warned that Carney defending the tax risked "undermining Canada’s economic relationship with its most important trading partner," Al Jazeera reported.
