Trump dines with Trudeau at Mar-a-Lago amid trade tensions

edition.cnn.com

President-elect Donald Trump is dining with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau at Mar-a-Lago, with some of Trudeau's cabinet members expected to attend. This meeting follows Trump's recent announcement of significant tariffs on goods from Canada and Mexico. Trump's proposed tariffs include a 25% tax on all products from these countries, which could disrupt supply chains. The dinner comes after a productive phone call between Trump and Trudeau focused on trade and border security. During Trump's first term, US-Canada relations were often strained over trade issues. It remains unclear how Trump plans to implement the new tariffs without conflicting with the USMCA trade agreement.
