Prime Minister Mark Carney and U.S. President Donald Trump talked on the phone late last month .

Carney has been selling himself as the tough guy who can put Trump in his place.

But he neglected to tell us it didn’t take long for Trump to bring up Canada as the 51st state with him.

He sees it as “just the show of a man who wanted to pretend something which appears not to be true. I believe many people in Canada and in Quebec will say: What the hell is that? And if that is not true, what else is not true?”.
