Watch Replay: President Trump, Justin Trudeau's Joint News Conference

President Trump and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau delivered a joint press conference Monday at the White House, their first together as world leaders.Trump gave a similar press conference with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe on Friday.

The focus of their meeting was a discussion of trade and jobs. Many of Trump's proposals, including renegotiation of NAFTA and changes to border-related taxes, could have a significant impact on Canada.

Trump stressed in his opening comments the strong and important relationship between the two countries. He also cited the meeting they had with women business leaders prior to the conference and emphasized the importance of both countries providing opportunities for women to be deeply involved in commerce.

Trudeau spoke both in French and in English and reflected Trump's embrace of the country's relationship. He noted that the countries may not agree on everything, but that they share the common goal of supporting hard-working families.

They announced a new council to support women business owners and plans to reduce harms of opioid epidemic.

During the question period, reporters asked questions stressing the differences between Trump and Trudeau, particularly on Syrian refugees and immigration.

Trump reiterated his plans to "get the bad ones out," while Trudeau noted that his country has accepted around 40,000 refugees. Asked whether Trump was confident in the safety of the Canadian-American border, given their different policies, Trump said, "You can never be totally confident."

None of the reporters asked questions about National Security Advisor Michael Flynn, who has been under fire for reports that he lied about a phone call with Russian officials.

Trudeau was asked what he thought about Trump's recent moves on immigration policy.

"There have been times when we have differed," Trudeau said. But he noted he would not come down and "lecture" another country about their policies.

In a joint statement released before the news conference, Trudeau and Trump said, "No two countries share a deeper or broader relationship than Canada and the United States. We are bound together by our history, our values, our economy, our environment, and our resolve to improve the lives of our citizens. Our close relationship and ongoing collaboration allow us to successfully meet any challenges we may face over the coming years, and to build a prosperous future for the people of both countries."
