Any relationship should have love, and if there is no love, it is better to call off a relationship. People say that love happens only once, but I don't believe in it because for me, if one relationship doesn't work, you should move on and seek love in another relationship.

I view the relationship with Canada as a vital relationship for the United States. The relationship, of course, is defined government-to-government.
