Trump praises Canadian separatists amid delicate trade talks

President Trump congratulated Quebec's separatist premier Paul St-Pierre Plamondon on Tuesday, despite fragile trade talks with Canada. Trump's top economic adviser suggested a deal to ease the trade war is possible, but the president continues to antagonize Ottawa. St-Pierre Plamondon's Parti Québécois won 60 of 127 seats, four short of a majority, and he vows a third independence referendum after Trump leaves office.
