Prime Minister Mark Carney spoke with U.S. President Donald Trump for the first time this morning.

Carney’s office says the leaders agreed to begin “comprehensive negotiations” to be led by Trade Minister Dominic LeBlanc and U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick.

In the meantime, Carney will get back on the campaign trail, his office says.

Carney has a news conference scheduled for 3:30 p.m. ET, after he meets with provincial and territorial leaders.

In a social media post, Trump said the two “agree on many things.”

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is still in B.C., where he pitched life sentences for fentanyl traffickers and gunrunners.-
