Canada’s PM Trudeau: Working With Trump ’Not Always Simple’

Local Editor

Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said that working with US President Donald Trump is "not always simple."

Trudeau’s comments came while he welcomed the successful renegotiation of the North American Free Trade Agreement.

Trudeau said he had done his job of "standing up for Canadians" in agreeing the USMCA trade pact with the US, Canada and Mexico.

Asked about his relationship with the US President, Trudeau cautiously acknowledged it is "not always simple."

"He knows it and so do I. We are not aligned on many things and it is sometimes difficult to find common ground, but we managed to do it fairly well," Trudeau said.

Relations between the two leaders took a hit in June, when Trump taunted Trudeau as "very dishonest & weak" and "meek and mild" as he left a G7 summit in Canada that the prime minister had hosted.
