Trump Cuts G7 Visit Short, Calls Canada Deal 'Achievable'

President Donald Trump met with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney during the G7 summit in Alberta to discuss U.S.-Canada trade tensions and a possible new deal. According to Benzinga, the relationship between the two countries has been strained over tariffs and Trump’s repeated suggestion to annex Canada as a 51st state. Carney's election signaled a move toward a more equal and pragmatic U.S.-Canada partnership. Trump described himself as a "tariff person," while acknowledging that Carney favored a different strategy. He said a deal was "achievable" within weeks, signaling a willingness to negotiate. The leaders agreed to pursue negotiations over the next 30 days.
