U.S. President Donald Trump says Prime Minister Mark Carney apologized to him for the controversial anti-tariff advertisement put out by the Ontario government, but says he still has no plans to resume trade negotiations with Canada.

“No, but I have a very good relationship,” Trump told a reporter aboard Air Force One on Oct. 31 when asked about resuming negotiations with Carney. Trump added that the prime minister had “apologized for what they did with the commercial, because it was a false commercial.”
