TORONTO (AP) — Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney says he will talk to U.S. President Donald Trump soon after Trump announced 25% tariffs on auto imports. Carney said Thursday that Trump reached out Wednesday night to schedule a call. Trump says that he’s placing 25% tariffs on auto imports. Carney said that “we will be speaking … in the course of the next day or two.” Carney was sworn in as Canada’s new prime minister on March 14. But he hasn’t spoken with Trump since taking office. It’s unusual for a U.S. president and Canadian prime minister to go so long without talking after a new leader takes office.
