Canada's Carney moderates criticism of Trump ahead of G7 as trade talks loom

Canada’s finance minister, Chrystia Carney, has softened her public tone toward President Trump. The shift comes as the Group of Seven summit approaches. Carney emphasized the importance of maintaining trade dialogue with the United States. She noted that constructive engagement could benefit Canadian exporters. The previous criticism was seen as a hurdle to bilateral talks. Officials expect trade negotiations to intensify during the G7 meetings. Analysts suggest the softened stance may ease diplomatic friction. Observers will watch whether the tone change translates into concrete trade outcomes.
