OTTAWA, March 17 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump must stop making “disrespectful” comments about Canada before the two countries can start serious talks about future ties, Prime Minister Mark Carney said on Monday.

"We've called out those comments. They're disrespectful, they're not helpful, and they ... will have to stop before we sit down and have a conversation about our broader partnership with the United States," Carney told reporters in London.

Can someone explain to me

  1. Why does he think Trump the yaphead would ever shut up about anything ever
  2. What good are "bilateral talks" with someone that can't keep their word anyway ?

What is the point here trying to show everyone just how much of a illequipped, stay-the-course, liberal empty suit he is and how he's going to boldly going to try to "do the same thing we've always done except not woke this time and hope it keeps working"

Don't these people understand that the US is only good at one thing and it's eating liberal banking stiffs alive ?

Are they trying to lose on purpose ?

Summary

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said Donald Trump must stop making “disrespectful” remarks about Canada before serious bilateral talks can begin.

Trump has threatened tariffs on Canadian imports and joked about making Canada the 51st U.S. state. Carney, sworn in last Friday, has yet to speak with Trump but insists Canada is ready for broader negotiations on trade and security.

Canada has imposed retaliatory tariffs but acknowledges limits due to its smaller economy.

Carney’s comments mark his strongest stance on Trump since taking office.
