Speaking to reporters in Ottawa on Tuesday, Trudeau had said: “My job as Canadian prime minister has always been to work with whomever the Americans elect to be their President and make sure that I’m standing up for Canadian values, Canadian interests and Canadian jobs and that’s exactly what I’m going to continue to do.”
