Prime Minister Mark Carney says he'll meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping at this week's APEC summit — a get-together that the prime minister hopes will reset the relationship between the two countries.

Prime Minister Mark Carney on Thursday said he expected to meet senior Chinese leaders soon but sidestepped a question about dropping tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles in exchange

"Without establishing a long-term strategy, any deal Trump signs will fall short of what both countries need."

Friday will mark the first time Chinese President Xi Jinping has met with a prime minister of Canada since diplomatic relations broke down in 2018.
