Trump's tariff threat was made earlier in the week, citing concerns over drug trafficking and border security. Trudeau's visit was not publicly scheduled and followed his arrival in West Palm Beach. Neither Trudeau's office nor Trump's representatives provided comments on the meeting. The situation marks a significant development in U.S.-Canada relations amid ongoing trade discussions.
