Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is unwilling to lift Canada’s retaliatory tariffs on the United States if President Donald Trump leaves any U.S. tariffs on Canada, a senior government official told The Associated Press on Wednesday.

The official confirmed Mr. Trudeau’s stance on the condition of anonymity because the person was not authorised to speak publicly on the matter. The official said Mr. Trump and Mr. Trudeau spoke by phone around midday.
