TL;DR Summary

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau met with U.S. President-elect Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago amid Trump's threats to impose 25% tariffs on goods from Mexico and Canada. The meeting follows Trump's claims that these tariffs are necessary to curb drug and illegal immigrant flows into the U.S. Trudeau, who described the conversation as "excellent," hopes to work with Trump on trade issues, referencing the USMCA agreement. Experts suggest Trump's tariff threats may be an attempt to renegotiate the USMCA earlier than planned, though they doubt its effectiveness in a second term.
