US President Donald Trump said he doesn’t anticipate meeting with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney “for a while,” despite Carney’s insistence that the two sides were close to a trade deal on lowering metals tariffs.

Trump halted the talks last week in reaction to a TV advertisement by the province of Ontario that criticized his tariff regime.
