Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau answered questions from reporters regarding the U.S. government's public contact with right-wing Alberta independence groups and publicly encouraging Alberta's independence.
Trudeau: We expect the U.S. government to respect Canada's sovereignty.
I have consistently made this position clear in my conversations with President Trump, and then we can continue to explore matters that can be advanced together.
Reporter: Have you expressed concerns to anyone in the Trump administration regarding the government's statements, Mr. Bessent's statements, and these meetings?
Trudeau: There are channels to express these concerns.
I haven't talked to them yet - I mean, these statements appeared within the past 24 to 48 hours.
I won't give real-time comments on every action taken by the U.S. government. I stand by what I said earlier - our expectation of the U.S. government is to respect Canada's sovereignty, and I have always clearly conveyed this position directly to the president.
