WASHINGTON - Prime Minister Mark Carney is set to return to Ottawa today with no deals to remove U.S. tariffs from Canadian goods, but he's leaving his key minister on Canada-U.S. trade behind to keep pressing the Canadian case.

U.S. President Donald Trump lavished praise on Carney during a meeting in the Oval Office on Tuesday and said the prime minister would walk away "very happy."

The president showed no signs of relenting on tariffs, however, and no deal was announced.

Carney was scheduled to have a working breakfast this morning with Joshua Bolten, president and CEO of the Business Roundtable, while Foreign Affairs Minister Anita Anand was set to meet with Secretary of State Marco Rubio.

Canada-U.S. Trade Minister Dominic LeBlanc will be staying behind in Washington.
