U.S. President Donald Trump says Prime Minister Mark Carney has apologized for an Ontario government advertisement criticizing U.S. tariffs, a controversy that led Washington to suspend trade negotiations with Canada earlier this month. Speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One, Trump said Carney offered an apology over what he called a “fraudulent” anti-tariff commercial. “He was very nice. He apologized for what they did with the commercial,” Trump said. However, when asked if trade talks with Canada would resume, the president replied, “No.” The Ontario government, led by Premi

The Supreme Court of Canada has ruled that mandatory minimum jail sentences for possessing or accessing child pornography violate the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

The two leaders met for 39 minutes on the sidelines of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Summit in South Korea — marking the first formal leader-level contact between the two countries in eight years.
