Carney says there will be more meetings. He’ll bring the matches next time if things don’t go well.

"You say the artificial line is at the top of your country. It's at the bottom of ours. If we remove the line, you'd be joining Canada…"

We're not trapped in the room with Americans, they're trapped with us.

I'm still surprised he didn't offer to buy the White House. But I would expect him to hold up the matches until conversations got even worse.

Instead of insulting the Americans by offering to buy the white house, he respected that some properties, such as the white house, are never for sale, also digging at Trump's real estate roots. He compares Canada to that, "after speaking with the owners of Canada, it is not for sale."

I like CBC's "About That" analysis.

I think Carney did exactly what he needed to do.

Those golden garnishing on the fireplace are 58.99USD each at Home Depot. They broke the bank to achieve the cheap luxury look that only Trump can appreciate.
