Justin Trudeau Has Dinner With Donald Trump At Mar-A-Lago Resort Amid Threats of Tariffs 

With the possibility of an impending trade conflict between the two countries hanging in the air, US President-elect Donald Trump is dining with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Friday night (local time) at the Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida, according to a report from CNN citing an insider.


The report indicates that some members of Trudeau’s cabinet were anticipated to be in attendance at the dinner, as Trump has recently voiced concerns related to the border and has threatened to impose a 25% tariff on imports from Canada effective on the first day of his presidency. Earlier, Trudeau was spotted exiting a hotel in West Palm Beach en route to meet Trump at his resort.


As reported by Reuters, Trudeau’s official public agenda did not list a visit to Florida. Neither Trudeau’s office nor representatives of Trump have provided comments regarding the meeting at the resort. 


Florida Representative Mike Waltz, who is a candidate for Trump's national security adviser position, along with Howard Lutnick, Trump's nominee for Secretary of Commerce and co-chair of the transition team, were also present at the dinner alongside their partners, as reported by CNN citing an insider. Katie Telford, Trudeau’s Chief of Staff, and Dominic LeBlanc, the Canadian Minister of Public Safety, were also noted to be present at the gathering, the report mentioned.


US-Canada Trade War Inevitable? 

Nonetheless, the gathering holds considerable importance as it occurs mere weeks before Trump is set to take office at the White House, and just days after he pledged significant tariffs on Canadian goods.


On the preceding Monday, Trump threatened to impose a 25% tariff on goods imported from Canada and Mexico unless both nations took action concerning drugs and illegal immigrants crossing into the US. Consequently, Trudeau convened a meeting with the premiers of all ten Canadian provinces to deliberate on relations with the US.


“One of the key points to comprehend is that Donald Trump, when he delivers statements of that nature, intends to follow through with them without a doubt,” Trudeau remarked while addressing reporters on Friday morning. 


“Our obligation is to highlight that in this manner he would not merely inflict harm on Canadians, who collaborate so effectively with the United States; he would indeed be increasing costs for American citizens as well and negatively impacting American industries and businesses,” he continued.
