Carney sounded in no hurry to get Trump on the line — or back to the negotiating table. “We'll speak when it makes sense,” Carney said. Carney told reporters that Trump reaffirmed his commitment to the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement last week. He noted the USMCA gives Canada tariff-free access to 85 percent of Canadian exports to the U.S.

Carney noted that fentanyl entering the United States from Canada was "a rounding error" compared to other sources.

The Canadian prime minister said he was "disappointed" by President Donald Trump's move to increase certain tariffs.
