Trudeau meets Trump for dinner at Mar-a-Lago after tariff threats

Justin Trudeau dined with Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago on Friday, marking the first visit by a G7 leader since Trump’s election. This meeting follows Trump’s threats of high tariffs on Canadian imports. Trudeau emphasized the importance of constructive dialogue with Trump to benefit Canadians. He expressed concerns that tariffs could harm both Canadian workers and American consumers. Trudeau is staying overnight in Florida but not at Mar-a-Lago. His visit comes after a period of tense trade relations, including the replacement of NAFTA with the USMCA during Trump’s first term.
