Schaumburg, Ill. - Brian P. McGuire, president & CEO of Associated Equipment Distributors (AED) issued the following statement regarding the trade situation between the United States and Canada:
“AED is disappointed that the United States and Canada could not come to a trade agreement during recent negotiations. However, our resolve remains strong.”
“AED has always had a stance supporting free and fair trade in North America, as the best means for achieving economic prosperity and growth in the sectors our members serve. Tariffs and retaliatory tariffs damage the economies on both sides of the border. Any measures that target equipment that builds, feeds and fuels both countries are detrimental regardless of if they're imposed by Canada or the United States. AED will continue to work with officials and political leaders on both sides of the border to encourage a return to the bargaining table.”
