Trudeau expects to speak to Trump in ‘coming days’
Canada : Trudeau is now taking 20 minutes of questions – the first reporter asks if the Canadian PM has any conversations scheduled with President Trump and whether he believes the tariffs are really about fentanyl.
The PM says he has “offered to speak to Donald over the last number of days” and he also expects “to speak with him in the coming days”.
“The facts show very clearly that in terms of taking action against fentanyl we are doing everything that is necessary not just for the United States, but for Canadians, on the scourge that is illegal fentanyl.”
We’re still listening to questions from reporters and will bring you any key lines as we get them.
