00:00I think he's a great prime minister. I mean, he could represent me any time.

00:04I will tell you, you know, I'm not saying that because he's...

00:06No, he is a very strong, very good leader.

00:10He's a nice man, but he could be nasty.

00:13He could be very nasty. Maybe as nasty as anybody.

00:16So then, what's holding things up?

00:17If he's a great man and you want to do a deal with Canada, why aren't you?

00:20Because I want to be a great man, too.

00:25I think he's a great prime minister.

00:27I mean, he could represent me any time.

00:29I will tell you, you know, I'm not saying that because he's...

00:32No, he is a very strong, very good leader.

00:35He's a nice man, but he could be nasty.

00:38He could be very nasty. Maybe as nasty as anybody.

00:41So then, what's holding things up?

00:43If he's a great man and you want to do a deal with Canada, why aren't you?

00:46Because I want to be a great man, too.

00:51And now, and I'm running out of time, but this is, in many respects, the most important.

00:56The merger of Canada and the United States.

00:59That wasn't where I was going.

01:02It's an honor to have the prime minister of Canada, Mark Carney, who I have made very popular.

01:09He's an extremely popular prime minister.

01:12And I'm very honored to do it because I liked him.

01:14Right from the beginning, I've liked him.

01:16And we've had a good relationship.

01:18We have some natural conflict, but we will probably work that out.

01:22But we've had a very strong relationship.

01:25And your hosting of the various countries that showed up, that was a beautiful job you did.

01:30And I appreciate it very much.

01:32We're going to be talking about trade.

01:34We're going to be talking about a lot of different things.

01:36We'll certainly be talking about Gaza.

01:37We're in very serious negotiations to, I guess you could say, depending on the way you count, 3,000 years.

01:46You could say 500 years.

01:48You could say, but that it's been raging for a long time.

01:51And I think there's a possibility that we could have peace in the Middle East.

01:55It's something even beyond the Gaza situation.

01:59We want a release of the hostages immediately, et cetera.

02:03And so our team is over there now.

02:06Another team just left.

02:07And other countries, literally every country in the world has supported the plan.

02:12I don't think there's anybody that hasn't, actually.

02:15Not that I've seen.

02:17But there's a real chance that we could do something.

02:20So you may have some questions on that later.

02:22But in the meantime, we'll spend some time and we'll make some deals.

02:26And we'll do some things that are good for both of our countries.

02:29And Mark, it's an honor to have you.

02:30Thank you very much.

02:31Thank you very much, Mr. President.
