Canadian Finance Minister Dominic LeBlanc and Foreign Minister Mélanie Joly met with Trump’s nominees for commerce and interior departments to discuss the potential impact of proposed tariffs. The talks aimed to emphasize Canada’s border security measures and address concerns over drug trafficking. While the meeting was described as constructive, no assurances were given regarding tariff impositions. The U.S.–Canada trade relationship is under scrutiny as Trump continues to push for tighter borders and greater economic adjustments.
