Investing.com -- Vice President JD Vance stated Monday that trade discussions with Canada remain in progress as the United States pushes for equitable terms.

Speaking to an audience in Brewer, Maine, Vance addressed the current state of negotiations with Canada's government.

"They came in with a bunch of unreasonable last-minute demands," Vance told the audience. "I think that we should have a deal, but I think that we need to send a message loud and clear to the Prime Minister of Canada: stop taking advantage of the people of Maine. Stop taking advantage of America. It's over. We expect fairness in our trade policy."

The vice president's comments indicate that talks between the two countries continue despite apparent disagreements over terms.
