Trump and Trudeau to meet at Mar-a-Lago as tariff threats loom

abcnews.go.com

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is meeting with President-elect Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago. This follows Trump's threats of 25% tariffs on goods from Canada and Mexico, aimed at addressing drug and immigration issues. Trudeau described a recent phone call with Trump as positive and expressed hope for productive discussions. He referenced the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) as a basis for cooperation on trade. The tariff threats could jeopardize the USMCA, which allows for renegotiation in 2026. Experts suggest that Trump's approach may not be as effective in a second term, given past strategies.
