00:00Mark, it's an honor to have you. Thank you very much.
00:11Thank you very much, Mr. President. If I may, you kindly hosted me and some of my colleagues a few months ago,
00:17and I said at the time, you are a transformative president.
00:22And since then, the transformation in the economy, unprecedented commitments of NATO partners to defense spending,
00:29peace from India, Pakistan, through to Azerbaijan, Armenia, disabling Iran as a force of terror.
00:36And now, and I'm running out of time, but this is, in many respects, the most important.
00:41The merger of Canada and the United States.
00:45That wasn't where I was going.
00:46No, but on this solemn day of commemoration of the horrific attacks of October 7th,
00:55for the first time in decades, hundreds of years, thousands of years,
01:00this prospect of peace that you've made possible.
01:03Canada stands foursquare behind those efforts, and we'll do whatever we can to support it.
01:07Very nice. Thank you very much.
01:10Any questions?
01:10Mr. President, what would it take for you to drop or lower your tariffs on Canadian sectors, including aluminum and steel?
01:21Well, we're going to be talking about that with the Prime Minister.
01:24We'll be talking about tariffs.
01:25We'll be talking about a lot of that.
01:27But that's for a little bit later on.
01:29Is the Prime Minister...
01:29Mr. President, I want to just acknowledge our great ambassador.
01:33Is he doing a good job?
01:35He's doing a good job.
01:36Otherwise, I'll get him out of there so far.
01:37Thank you very much.
