Trudeau visits Trump: Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau meets Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago amid tariff threats [Video]

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was in Florida to meet with President-elect Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago Friday night.

The meeting came after Trump threatened sweeping 25% tariffs on goods from Mexico and Canada until both countries stop what he claims is a flow of drugs and illegal immigrants into the United States.

Trudeau told reporters earlier this week after he and Trump spoke on the phone following the tariff threat that they had a “good call.” He added that he looks forward to “lots of great conversations” with Trump.

The prime minister has cited the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement, or UMSCA, negotiations as a sign he believes he can work with Trump on trade and avoid a trade war.
