Trudeau calls meeting with Trump at Mar-a-Lago an excellent conversation on trade issues

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau met with President-elect Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago, Florida, for the first time since Trump's election. Trudeau described the conversation as "excellent" and focused on addressing trade concerns. Trump has threatened a 25 percent tariff on goods from Canada and Mexico unless they reduce drug and migrant flows. Trudeau expressed confidence in resolving these issues through dialogue. The two leaders have a history of trade disputes, including tariffs imposed by both sides in 2018. Canada remains a key trading partner for the U.S., with significant daily trade across the border.
