Trudeau travels to Florida for meeting with Trump over tariff concerns
bbc.com —
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has traveled to Florida to meet with president-elect Donald Trump. This visit comes in response to Trump's threat to impose a 25% tariff on Canadian goods starting in January. Trudeau arrived at Palm Beach International Airport and is expected to have dinner with Trump at Mar-a-Lago. The meeting follows a phone call earlier this week regarding the tariff announcement. In preparation for the meeting, Trudeau held an emergency discussion with Canadian provincial leaders about the US-Canada relationship. Canada relies heavily on trade with the US, sending about 75% of its exports there.
