Trump and Carney to meet at White House in closely watched encounter

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

64% : And while the president had sometimes called the prime minister a "very nice guy", Trump also called Trudeau "two-faced" after he was revealed on video leading the laughter at Trump's expense at a Nato summit.
57% : I suspect that immediately, Trump will look at Carney as a kind of 'super banker' and see him in a positive light," he said.
55% : Vibe at meeting could hint at future relationship between the two countries and their two leaders Canada's prime minister, Mark Carney, was due to meet with US president, Donald Trump, on Tuesday in a closely watched encounter at the White House that could hint at the future relationship between the two countries and their two leaders.
48% : During his victory speech last week, Carney used one of his campaign's most frequently delivered lines, telling exuberant supporters Trump wanted to "break us, so that America can own us".
47% : "Trade negotiations are never completely static and hopefully he can present his negotiations with Trump as something that is better for Canada, and not simply as bending the knee to President Trump.
44% : He pushed back when Trump questioned our sovereignty, but that push back would be something the president understands, because that's how he behaves.
42% : "If Carney presents himself as making concessions to Trump to preserve the trading relationship between the two countries, the Conservative party will be able to take advantage of this," said Hurl.
41% : Carney also used his first post-election press conference to once again quash any idea Canada was interested in becoming the 51st US state, a proposal repeatedly floated by Trump.
36% : In Trudeau's final days as prime minister, Trump repeatedly derided him as "governor" of Canada.
32% : "With Trump, you're just never sure on any day where he is, what's going on in his head and who was the last person to talk to him before in the meeting," said Robertson.
30% : "And Carney's also been very careful not to be personally critical of Trump, beyond talking about him that we're a sovereign country, and this is how we're doing stuff.
28% : Still, Carney's "antagonistic" rhetoric towards Trump might be something he might regret when faced with the economic realities of Canada's dependence on the United States, said Ryan Hurl, an assistant professor of political science at the University of Toronto.
27% : Over the weekend, Trump said it was "highly unlikely" he would use military force to annex Canada, a key trading partner and political ally.
25% : "Trump has probably overreached on trade issues and we're really starting to see the push back now.
18% : Meanwhile, Trump is also starting to face domestic pressure: his decision to launch a trade war with allies and foes alike has started to harm him in public opinion as American companies warn they were prepared to raise costs for consumers.
