Key members of Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's cabinet have embarked on a crucial trip to Florida to engage in discussions with representatives of President-elect Donald Trump. The meeting, which took place on Thursday, aims to address concerns surrounding potential trade tensions between Canada and the United States.
Newly appointed Finance Minister Dominic Leblanc and Foreign Minister Melanie Joly are leading the Canadian delegation, demonstrating the government's proactive approach to safeguard its economic interests. The discussions are particularly significant given Trump's strong stance on tariffs, which he has pledged to impose as part of his trade policy.
The Canadian government is keen to prevent a trade war that could have severe repercussions for its economy, especially in sectors that heavily rely on trade with the U.S. As both nations navigate this delicate situation, the outcome of these talks will be closely watched, with implications for the future of North American trade relations.
