Prime Minister Mark Carney says his government is having "intensive discussions" with the United States to remove what he calls an "unjustified and illegal" increase on steel and aluminum tariffs.

Prime Minister Mark Carney said the two nations “will cooperate where necessary, where it is in both of our interests very clearly, but we won’t necessarily cooperate.”

Prime Minister Mark Carney said Canada won’t respond immediately to the Trump administration’s doubling of steel and aluminum tariffs, and indicated that officials are in “intensive discussions” about the trade relationship between the countries.
