WASHINGTON: Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney has said that his government remains ready to continue "constructive discussions" with the United States after US President Donald Trump abruptly announced the termination of trade negotiations between the two countries.
"For months, we have stressed the importance of distinguishing things we can control and things we can't control, " Carney said on Friday, before leaving for Malaysia for the ASEAN Summit.
"We can't control the trade policy of the United States. We recognise that policy has fundamentally changed from the policy in the 1980s, 1990s, and 2000s."
