00:00Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney takes a swift jab at US President Donald Trump
00:05after a teleprompter malfunctioned in the middle of a news conference on housing policy.
00:23Carney's comment appeared to reference Trump's remarks at last year's UN General Assembly.
00:27Trump sought an investigation after a stalled escalator and a non-functioning teleprompter
00:32delayed his speech. Carney's office and the White House did not immediately respond to requests for
00:37comment. Relations between Canada and the US have been fraught since Trump returned to the White House
00:41last year. Trump slapped broad tariffs on the Northern neighbor and called for Canada to become
00:46the 51st US state. Carney has pushed back against Trump's trade policies while working to reduce
00:52Canada's economic reliance on the US. He has also drawn international attention by
00:57declaring the rules-based global order over and warning against the use of economic
01:02integration as a political weapon.
