U.S. President Donald Trump's successive announcements of deals setting baseline tariffs on the European Union and Japan are prompting questions about whether they're a road map for Canada to follow in trade talks.

The US and the EU will have zero tariffs on aircraft and their components, some chemicals, some generic drugs, some semiconductors, some agricultural products and essential raw materials. Alcoholic beverages are not included in the agreement. The 50% tariffs on steel and aluminum remain.

Japan will invest $550 billion in the U.S. and allow the U.S. to tax Japanese goods sold in America at 15 percent.
