US President Donald Trump jested with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney during a bilateral meeting, joking that Canada could be the "51st US State." Carney laughed along, and Trump said that while the two nations have had their differences, they can work them out.
"I've been very creative... He said very carefully- Canada and the United States," Trump said, pointing at Carney's measured style of speaking.
Trump added, "We've had some natural conflict, but we'll probably work that out. We've had a strong relationship, and your hosting of the various countries that showed up was a beautiful job you did, and I appreciate it very much. We're going to be talking about trade. We're going to be talking about different things. We'll certainly be talking about Gaza."
