Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorPrime Minister Mark Carney says he had a constructive conversation Sunday with President Trump, and negotiators will work toward a trade deal in the coming weeks.

Gloria Vance · World News AnchorMr. Trump, after landing in Iowa for a rally, said, quote, we have the concept of a very good deal with Canada. A concept.

Gloria Vance · World News AnchorThe talks stalled in August when Canada walked out, and he answered with fifty percent tariffs on roughly twenty billion dollars of Canadian goods.

Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorSo what's in the concept? Are my steel and my car getting cheaper?

Gloria Vance · World News AnchorBoth sides discuss relief on steel and automobiles. No details have been announced. The one item Mr. Trump named was the Keystone XL pipeline.

Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorThe pipeline?

Gloria Vance · World News AnchorA Toronto historian cautions against reading much into the improved tone, and the midterms are Tuesday. A concept, a conversation and a call.

Gloria Vance · World News AnchorEverything in this deal is a noun except the tariffs.
