Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney is challenging U.S. President Donald Trump to make a friendly wager on the outcome of the World Series between the Toronto Blue Jays and Los Angeles Dodgers.

Celebrations will be in full swing around the London-area as baseball fans prepare to cheer on the Toronto Blue Jays as they take on the Los Angeles Dodgers in the first game of the World Series tonight.
