Trump's Tariff Threats Face Criticism for Potential Economic Impact

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau emphasized the importance of maintaining a constructive relationship with President-elect Donald Trump, warning that proposed tariffs on Canadian goods would harm both Canadian and American economies. Trudeau highlighted past successes in renegotiating NAFTA to protect jobs and promote growth on both sides of the border. Trump has announced plans to impose a 25% tariff on Canadian products to address issues like drug trafficking and illegal immigration, a move that U.S. President Joe Biden criticized as counterproductive.
