Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has promised President-elect Donald Trump to strengthen border controls between Canada and the U.S. This commitment follows Trump's threats of tariffs on Canadian imports unless Canada addresses issues related to migrants and drugs. Trudeau and Trump discussed new security measures, including the use of drones and police helicopters. Public Safety Minister Dominic LeBlanc emphasized the need for visible action to reassure both Canadians and Americans about border security. The tone of the meeting was notably friendly, contrasting with past tensions between the two leaders. Trump previously criticized Trudeau over vaccine mandates and other issues, but they ended the dinner on amicable terms.
