(Reuters) -U.S. Vice President JD Vance discussed fair trade policies with Canada's Prime Minister Mark Carney on Sunday in Rome, Vance's office said in a statement as the two nations try to resolve a dispute over tariffs.
The two leaders also discussed efforts underway to secure borders, crack down on fentanyl and increase investments in defense and security, Carney's office said in a separate statement.
The leaders spoke about the immediate trade pressures and the need to build a new economic and security relationship, agreeing to stay in contact, the statement said.
Carney and Vance were among leaders from around the world attending Pope Leo XIV's inaugural Mass earlier in the day.
