VATICAN CITY (Reuters) -Pope Leo lamented on Friday the frictions roiling relations between the United States and Canada, in a likely reference to U.S. President Donald Trump's decision to cut off US-Canada trade talks.
"Canada and the United States ... as we are sitting here, are experiencing great difficulties," Leo, the first U.S. pope, told a meeting at the Vatican.
