Negotiators have until Friday night to finalize the deal, or face the threat of increased US tariffs on Canadian goods. If Canada fails to secure a deal, Prime Minister Mark Carney may have to impose new tariffs, which could potentially cost the country 90,000 jobs. So far, reactions to the negotiations have been mixed, with some business leaders criticizing the proposed tariffs on Canadian industries. Meanwhile, Quebec Premier Christine Frechette and other premiers are still analyzing the potential impact of the deal on their provinces.",
