Canada believes Donald Trump is no longer interested in turning it into the 51st state, Prime Minister Mark Carney said Tuesday.

Asked by CNN’s Christiane Amanpour on the sidelines of the NATO meeting in the Netherlands whether Trump is still saying he wants to annex Canada, Carney replied, “No, he is not.”

“He admires Canada,” Carney told Amanpour. “I think it’s fair to say, maybe for a period of time (he) coveted Canada.”

    • Does he still want that icecream?
    • Nah, he’s watching Cocomelon now.
