U.S. President Donald Trump has dismissed the possibility of meeting Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney in the near future, telling reporters aboard Air Force One that it will be “a long time” before the two leaders sit down again.

In response, he threatened to impose an additional 10 per cent tariff on Canadian goods, on top of existing levies.

Carney, attending the Association of Southeast Asian Nations summit in Malaysia, is expected to address the escalating trade dispute later this week. His government has signaled that Canada remains open to dialogue, despite Washington’s decision to suspend trade talks.

The latest exchange underscores the growing strain in U.S.-Canada relations, with tariffs and political messaging fueling uncertainty for industries on both sides of the border.
