Two Canadian Cabinet ministers recently met with President-elect Donald Trump's nominees for key positions, but left without a clear commitment to avoid tariffs on Canadian products. The talks were described as 'productive,' with plans for further discussions. However, American officials seem focused on the U.S. trade deficit with Canada.
Trump has threatened to impose significant tariffs on all Canadian goods unless Canada addresses issues related to migrants and fentanyl entering the U.S. Despite statistics showing fewer such incidents from Canada compared to Mexico, the threat remains.
