Trudeau returns from Trump meeting without tariff assurances
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau returned home after a meeting with President-elect Donald Trump, without guarantees that Trump will drop proposed tariffs on Canadian goods. Trump described the talks as "productive" but did not back down from his tariff threats. The discussions included topics like fentanyl, trade, and immigration. Trump emphasized the need for cooperation to address these issues, while Trudeau highlighted the potential negative impact of tariffs on both Canadian and American consumers. Trudeau's visit marks the first by a G7 leader since the election. The meeting comes amid concerns that tariffs could disrupt the North American trade agreement, which both leaders previously renegotiated.
