‘It seems more and more to have been a stunt,’ Blanchet says of Carney on Trump call
Bloc Québécois Leader Yves-François Blanchet, speaking from Montreal during the final week of the federal election campaign, is asked about a Radio-Canada report that Trump did mention making Canada the 51st U.S. state during a March 28 call with Liberal Leader Mark Carney. Carney previously said Trump 'respected Canada’s sovereignty' during the conversation.
