Prime Minister Carney and President Trump discussed the immediate trade pressures facing their nations. The Prime Minister stated Canada’s openness to building a new economic and security relationship with the United States – based on respect, built on common interests, and to the benefit of both nations.
To that end, the Prime Minister and the President agreed to continue discussions over the coming weeks. They looked forward to meeting next month at the G7 Summit in Kananaskis.
As the Prime Minister returns to Canada, he remains focused on reinforcing Canada’s strength at home. His new government will transform border security, Arctic security, and Canada’s investments in national defence.
