Trump threatens 25% tariff on Mexico and Canada over drug and border security issues

U.S. President-elect Donald Trump has threatened to impose a 25% tariff on all products from Mexico and Canada unless they address drug and border security issues. This announcement has raised concerns among Canadian leaders about how to respond effectively. The tariff threat is seen as a potential tactic to reshape trade relations and create division between Canada and Mexico. Canadian officials are urged to avoid panic and to strategize their response rather than react impulsively. Trump's approach may differ from previous administrations, as he has a personal interest in trade policy. The situation remains fluid, and Canadian leaders must navigate these challenges carefully to protect their economic interests.
