President-elect Trump recently took to his Truth Social account to share his thoughts on a meeting with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, referring to him as 'Governor Justin Trudeau of the Great State of Canada.' The meeting, which took place at Trump's Mar-a-Lago property in Florida, was described as 'very productive' by both parties.

During the meeting, Trump discussed various topics with Trudeau, including tariffs, trade, and immigration issues. Trump has proposed imposing 25% tariffs on imports from Canada and Mexico, citing concerns about illegal immigration and drug trafficking.

Trump emphasized the need for fair trade deals that protect American workers and address the trade deficit with Canada. He also expressed his determination to combat the drug crisis, particularly the influx of fentanyl from China and drug cartels.

Energy, trade, and Arctic issues were also on the agenda during the meeting, although specific details were not disclosed by Trump. He indicated that these issues would be a priority for his administration upon taking office.

Trump previously announced his intention to impose tariffs on Canada and Mexico on his first day in office, citing concerns about border security and illegal immigration. During his first term, Trump renegotiated NAFTA, leading to the creation of the USMCA, which aimed to modernize trade relations between the three countries.

Overall, the meeting between Trump and Trudeau highlighted the ongoing discussions and negotiations between the two nations on various economic and security issues. The outcome of these talks is expected to have significant implications for trade relations and border policies moving forward.
