Prime Minister Justin Trudeau wrapped up a call with his U.S. counterpart midday Wednesday, a senior government official told CBC News.

It's the first time the two have spoken since U.S. President Donald Trump launched a trade war yesterday with devastating tariffs on all Canadian goods.

The details of what the two leaders discussed are not yet known.

Vice-President JD Vance and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick were also on the call, the government official said.

The official said discussions between the two sides will continue throughout the afternoon.

Drop the tariffs and we'll allow US banks to operate in Canada, allow American cars to be sold here, ban all exports of fentanyl, and stop booing your national anthem.

US banks are already allowed. They just don't like our regulations (that protect us against a 2008 style financial crisis)

I think the joke is that we already do all of those things (except the stop booing part)

Also that we might otherwise stop doing some of those things.

We may also be lying about offering to stop booing. Canadians have gone hard into patriotism because of how moronic Trump is.

You made me appreciate Trudeau you fuckers, and I still loathe what he's (not) done with election reform.
