President Donald Trump confirmed Friday that he is taking a hardline stance with Canada in talks to rewrite the North American Free Trade Agreement, but railed against the leak of his comments by a Canadian newspaper.

The Toronto Star reported that Trump boasted in an interview that he was playing hardball with Canada in the negotiations.

Trump complained on Twitter that his off-the-record comments were released, saying it was a violation of the agreement, but "At least Canada knows where I stand!"
