On Friday, U.S. President Donald Trump described a “productive” phone call with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, revealing that the two leaders plan to meet after Canada’s upcoming election, scheduled for next month, amidst rising tensions between the two countries.

“It was an extremely productive call, we agree on many things, and we will be meeting immediately after Canada’s upcoming election to discuss politics, business, and other important matters,” Trump shared on his social media platform, Truth Social. Carney and his office have yet to comment on the call, which came a day after the newly elected leader of Canada pledged to reduce the country’s economic reliance on the U.S., and ahead of Trump’s upcoming tariff announcement set for April 2.

The U.S. and Canada have historically been close allies and major trading partners, but relations have become strained since Trump, who took office in January, introduced tariff threats and made repeated comments suggesting the possibility of turning Canada into the 51st U.S. state.

Carney, who assumed office in mid-March, has called for a snap election, which is set for April 28.
