Prime Minister Mark Carney says he made a mistake when he dismissed a reporter’s question about when he last spoke with U.S. President Donald Trump by saying “who cares.”
Carney made the comment during question period in the House of Commons on Nov. 25 after Opposition Leader Pierre Poilievre said Carney promised an “elbows up” approach when it came to negotiating with the U.S. administration before the election, and accused Carney of now adopting a “who cares” approach.
