The European Union's trade commissioner Cecilia Malmstrom has no time for anyone who tries to bully Canada's Foreign Affairs Minister Chrystia Freeland — even if it's Donald Trump. Trump did not mention Freeland by name, but she has been acting as the lead official for Canada during the ongoing NAFTA talks. She said she frequently discusses trade issues with Freeland as both Canada and the European Union work on separate deals with the U.S."We talk regularly. Demonstrators march against the CETA trade deal near the European Parliament in Strasbourg, eastern France, Wednesday, Feb.15, 2017. Malmstrom is in Montreal this week to mark the one-year provisional application of CETA, the free trade deal between Canada and the European Union.
