U.S. President Donald Trump, following his meeting with Prime Minister Mark Carney, said that he feels a trade deal with Canada could be achievable shortly, while adding that he strongly objects to the ejection of Russia from what was then the G8 and supports the addition of China to the summit.

U.S. President Donald Trump said “not so much” is holding up an economic and security deal with Canada as he began his first full day at the Group of Seven summit, a forum he added should consider expanding to include China. Mr. Trump said Canada and the United States will see if they can resolve their differences Monday.
