Canadian negotiators left Washington without a deal meant to prevent new tariffs from being enacted, according to CNBC Markets.

The dispute was tied to failed efforts to head off a new round of 50% tariffs on about $20 billion worth of goods, after talks did not produce an agreement.

CNBC Markets said the failure came before President Donald Trump could move forward with the tariff plan.
