# Canada-US dairy trade negotiations > Live situation record from CLSTR: https://clstr.news/situations/canada-us-dairy-trade-negotiations > Updated: 2026-09-05T17:43:14.000Z. Sources: 3. Developments: 2. Tensions have emerged regarding Canada’s supply-management system amid trade negotiations with the United States. The Bloc Québécois has urged Prime Minister Mark Carney to ‘respect his word’ and avoid making concessions to the Trump administration that would grant American producers increased access to Canadian and Quebec markets. Party representatives expressed concern that dairy producers are being used as ‘bargaining chips’ in broader trade deals. In response to these pressures, newly elected Liberal MP Daniel Gobeil, a former dairy farmer and agricultural leader, has pledged to represent the Quebec dairy sector in Ottawa. Gobeil has engaged in discussions with the minister responsible for Canada-U.S. trade to address Washington’s pressure on the system, which regulates production and pricing through import quotas and tariffs. A federal law passed last year currently restricts the Canadian government from making trade commitments that would increase import quotas or lower tariffs for these protected sectors. ## Timeline ### 2026-09-05: Daniel Gobeil vows to represent Quebec dairy sector in Ottawa Newly elected Liberal MP Daniel Gobeil aims to represent Quebec’s dairy sector in Ottawa amid ongoing Canada-U.S. trade tensions regarding supply-management systems. 3 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/daniel-gobeil-vows-to-represent-quebec-dairy-sector-in-ottawa ### 2026-08-13: Bloc Québécois urges Mark Carney to protect dairy producers The Bloc Québécois is calling on Prime Minister Mark Carney to protect Canada's dairy industry and supply management system during trade negotiations with the United States. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/bloc-qubcois-urges-mark-carney-to-protect-dairy-producers --- Cite as: Canada-US dairy trade negotiations.
