Canada's Prime Minister Mark Carney's remarks came as US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said he hoped to strike interim trade deals with Mexico and Canada this year.

Mark Carney says Canada is ready to intensify U.S. trade talks after Trump's new tariffs, calling them a USMCA violation.

Carney also said that he and Trump had agreed to "intensify discussions" in the coming weeks on a possible deal, but did not suggest he would travel to Washington for any talks.
