Mark Carney says Trump trade call "builds on recent constructive discussions"

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said Sunday that he and U.S. President Donald Trump had a positive phone discussion about trade between the two countries, which have been engaged in a commercial conflict. In a post on X, Carney described the call as a continuation of recent talks aimed at shaping a possible agreement that would benefit both nations. He said the envisioned pact would help workers, ease costs for households and uphold Canada’s linguistic, cultural and sovereign interests. Carney added that officials from both sides would spend the coming weeks trying to complete the deal.
