Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau arrives for a meeting at the United Nations headquarters in New York on April 6, 2017.

The interview follows a decision to impose tariffs on farm products from Canada on softwood lumber and President Donald Trump issuing a tweet suggesting dairy products may be next.

The moves prompted a phone call late Tuesday between Trump and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau who “refuted the baseless allegations” on lumber, according to Reuters, citing a statement, and saying that Canada will stick to NAFTA rules giving U.S. access to duty-free and quota-free access for milk protein substances.
