Trump admin live updates: Trump says Hamas will release hostage Edan Alexander

The Canadian prime minister again dismissed Trump's stances on taking over the country and tariffs.

"Well, respectfully, the Canadians' view on this is not going to change on the 51st state. Secondly, we are the largest client of the United States in ... the totality of all the goods. So we are the largest client of the United States," he said.

"We have a tremendous auto sector between the two of us, and the changes we have made have been helpful," Carney added.

Trump however pushed back, but maintained he and Carney were having a "very friendly conversation."

"We want to make our own cars. We don't really want cars from Canada. And we put tariffs on cars from Canada. And at a certain point, it won't make economic sense for Canada to build those cars," Trump said.

Carney talked about the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) trade agreement and its future.

"It is a basis for a broader negotiation. Some things about are going to have to change," Carney told Trump. "And part of the way you've conducted these tariffs has taken advantage of existing aspects of USMCA. So it's going to have to change."

"There's other elements that have come. And that's part of what we're going to discuss," the prime minister added.

Trump said that he has not spoken with Chinese officials over the tariffs, despite claiming as much in the last few weeks.

A reporter asked Trump about the negotiations after Bessent testified that no such talks with China had taken place.

"They want to negotiate and we want to have a meeting, but we will have a meeting with them at the right time," the president claimed.

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney pointedly told Trump that Canada is not "for sale" amid Trump's repeated suggestions that Canada become part of the United States as the "51st state."

"As you know from real estate, there are some places that are not for sale. And Canada is not for sale, it will never be for sale," Carney told Trump. "But the opportunity is in the partnership, and, and what we can build together. And we have done that in the past."

Trump was asked if Carney's comments made today's conversation more difficult, to which he said no.

"Time will tell. It's only time. But I say never say never," Trump said. "I've had many, many things that were not doable, and they ended up being doable and only doable in a very friendly way."
