WASHINGTON \u2014 Prime Minister Mark Carney had a phone conversation with U.S. President Donald Trump yesterday.<\/p>\n

A statement from the Prime Minister\u2019s Office calls the call \u201cproductive and wide-ranging\u201d and said the leaders discussed current trade challenges, opportunities and shared priorities in a new economic and security relationship.<\/p>\n

It said Trump and Carney also discussed how to support long-term peace and security for Ukraine and Europe.<\/p>\n

Earlier this month, Trump increased tariffs on Canada to 35 per cent with the White House saying Ottawa did not do enough to curb the flow of fentanyl.<\/p>\n

Those tariffs do not apply to goods compliant with the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement on trade.<\/p>\n

Canada is also being hammered by tariffs on steel, aluminum, copper and automobiles.<\/p>\n
