Prime Minister Mark Carney said his trade discussions with U.S. President Donald Trump were “very constructive” and “wide-ranging,” and there will be more in the weeks to come, but did not say when he believes Ottawa can get the tariffs to come off.

“I conveyed to the president today what our countries have long proven to be true, that Canada and the United States are stronger when we work together,” Carney said during a press conference in Washington, D.C., on May 6.
