Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is questioning why Prime Minister Mark Carney promised he could handle U.S. President Donald Trump, given that the two countries have yet to finalize a trade agreement that would see Canada granted some tariff relief.

Speaking to CBC’s Rosemary Barton Live , Poilievre said Carney has not delivered on what he promised during the spring election campaign.

“Mr. Carney promised a good deal by July 21. He promised he could negotiate a win with President Trump. Those were his promises,” he told host Rosemary Barton.

“Some might say, ‘Look, it’s unrealistic to expect to get that from President Trump.’ So why did he promise it? It wasn't just that it was a promise. It was the promise.” WATCH | Poilievre criticizes Carney for not securing deal with U.S.
