Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney told Donald Trump on Tuesday that his country will never be for sale, shutting down the U.S. president’s repeated calls to make Canada the 51st state.
“There are some places that are never for sale,” Carney said in the Oval Office.
Canada is “not for sale” and “won’t be for sale ever,” the prime minister said.
Trump replied: “Never say never.”
Mark Carney is the person we want at the helm right now in the rough waters ahead. Don’t underestimate him. What he did at that meeting was show diplomacy at its finest. Calm down. Let him do what he does best.
