Vance, Carney discuss trade and security in Rome

U.S. President Donald Trump said on Wednesday that Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney plans to visit the White House within the next week to discuss a potential trade deal.
Speaking after a Cabinet meeting, Trump said Carney had called him on Tuesday following his election win. “He called me up yesterday – he said let’s make a deal,” Trump told reporters. “He couldn’t have been nicer and I congratulated him.”
