The Canadian government is rescinding its digital services tax to avoid stalling trade talks with the United States, two days after U.S. President Donald Trump announced he would end negotiations over the levy.

Ottawa says that removing the tax will put Canada back on track to reach a trade deal with the United States by July 21.
