Canadian Prime Minister Jokes About Teleprompter Glitch, Referencing Trump
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney humorously addressed a teleprompter malfunction during a housing policy announcement in Toronto, joking that unlike US President Donald Trump, he did not view the issue as a conspiracy. The comment referenced Trump's past complaints about technical problems at the United Nations General Assembly. The incident occurred amid ongoing trade tensions between Canada and the US, with Trump recently criticizing Canadian leadership over tariffs. Neither Carney's office nor the White House immediately commented on the exchange.
