The United States will resume trade negotiations with Canada immediately after Ottawa scrapped its digital services tax targeting U.S. technology firms, White House economic adviser Kevin Hassett said on Monday.

Canada will rescind a digital services tax – a way of taxing online companies – its government said on Sunday, in a bid to restart trade negotiations with the United States.

The Canadian government said “in anticipation” of a trade deal “Canada would rescind” the Digital Serves Tax. The plan to tax U.S. technology firms was set to go into effect Monday.
