Trump and three other key presidential candidates - Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders and Ted Cruz - all opposed the TPP in their 2016 campaigns in a bid to win support from unions, which are overwhelmingly against trade deals. Trump has repeatedly described TPP as a "terrible" deal and said he prefers bilateral deals instead of multilateral deals.
Trudeau said he appreciates China's stance on climate change and the role that the world's second-largest economy has played. Canada will increase exchanges with China in this area, he said.
Trump's plan to add the question to the census ran into a roadblock two weeks ago when the Supreme Court ruled against the administration, which had said new data on citizenship would help to better enforce the Voting Rights Act, which protects minority rights. The court ruled, in considering the litigation by challengers, that that rationale was "contrived."
Trump has repeatedly tried to scapegoat the World Health Organization, claiming the United States is paying the price for the agency's mishandling of the pandemic, Guatemalan political observer and former diplomat Manuel Villacorta said.
Tu Xinquan, professor of the University of International Business and Economics, said that a "decisive element" in a trade war is not loss itself but the capability to bear losses.
Trump's decision to end the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA, program will be argued before the US Supreme Court in November.

Trump said he acted appropriately, but he has relentlessly hammered Biden and his son as "corrupt".
