President Trump met with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, rejecting calls to reduce tariffs on Canadian goods. Trump reiterated his unsubstantiated claim that the US subsidizes Canada by $200 billion annually. Carney acknowledged Canada's significant role as a US trading partner, emphasizing the mutual benefits of free trade. Despite Trump suggesting Canada become a US state, Carney firmly rejected this proposition. While Trump expressed openness to future negotiations, no immediate trade deal was reached, with both leaders acknowledging the complexity and time required for such an agreement.
