“It wasn’t easy, and nothing is going to be easy this time,” Trudeau said during a fireside chat at the summit. He went on to say that no American administration is “automatically easy” for a government in Ottawa.
Working with the next Donald Trump administration will be a constant challenge for Canada, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau told the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in Lima, Peru.
