Prime Minister Justin Trudeau wrapped up a call with his U.S. counterpart midday Wednesday, a senior government official told CBC News.

It’s the first time the two have spoken since U.S. President Donald Trump launched a trade war yesterday with devastating tariffs on all Canadian goods.

The details of what the two leaders discussed are not yet known.

Vice-President JD Vance and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick were also on the call, the government official said.

The official said discussions between the two sides will continue throughout the afternoon.

    I think the joke is that we already do all of those things (except the stop booing part)

      We may also be lying about offering to stop booing. Canadians have gone hard into patriotism because of how moronic Trump is.

      You made me appreciate Trudeau you fuckers, and I still loathe what he’s (not) done with election reform.
