Morris stated, “[W]hat he has done is he has accepted the premise that the CBC and the Liberal Party have put forth, which is Trump bad. … It’s preposterous to reject the United States, as represented by Trump right now, to throw the baby out with the bathwater just because people have a negative opinion of Trump in Canada.”

Liberal Leader Mark Carney is confirming that U.S. President Donald Trump talked again about Canada becoming the a U.S. state during their first bilateral call on March 28.
Carney came under attack from the other main party leaders Thursday after a CBC/Radio-Canada article, citing confidential sources, said Trump pitched Carney during the call on the benefits of Canada joining the U.S.
Pressed by reporters Thursday, the Liberal leader admitted that Trump did bring up annexation during the call, adding that he made clear to Trump that would never happen.
Trump toned down his rhetoric toward Canada that day after months of needling then-prime minister Justin Trudeau by calling him the "governor" of America's soon-to-be 51st state.
On Wednesday, Trump's shadow again loomed over the federal election when he said in the Oval Office that he doesn't want Canada to play a part in the American auto industry and warned that auto tariffs against Canada could go up.

YET AGAIN: Carney caught lying about Trump call
Liberal leader Mark Carney has been caught in yet another lie, as the state broadcaster is now reporting that US President Donald Trump did in fact mention Canada as the 51st state in their private call.
