U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer criticized Canada at the end of the latest round of talks to renegotiate the North American Free Trade Agreement, saying that a recent trade action brought by it against the U.S. was an “unprecedented” and dangerous move.

“It constitutes a massive attack on all of our trade laws. If it were successful, it would lead to more Chinese imports into the United States and likely fewer Canadian goods being sold in our market,” Lighthizer said in Montreal on Monday at the conclusion of the sixth round of talks to renegotiate the 1993 trade deal among the U.S., Canada and Mexico. Further talks are expected through the summer.
