The future for Canada and UK trade deals

Canada is likely to be at the top of the list for the UK's post-Brexit trade deals

The future trade potential of the 52-member bloc will be on the agenda at the inaugural Commonwealth trade ministers' meeting in London this week.

Increased trade with the rest of the Commonwealth has been touted as a strong possibility post-Brexit and one of the nations at the top of the UK's target list to strike a trade deal with in the coming years is Canada.

Francois-Philippe Champagne, Canada's trade minister, says creating a good trade deal with the UK "starts from a strong base" and is in "both countries' interests".
