Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau arrived in Florida on Friday (November 29, 2024) for a dinner with Donald Trump at the U.S. president-elect's Mar-a-Lago estate, as the incoming U.S. leader promised tariffs on Canadian imports.

The unannounced meeting comes at the end of a week that has seen Canada as well as Mexico scramble to blunt the impact of Mr. Trump's trade threats, which experts have warned could also hit U.S. consumers hard.

A smiling Mr. Trudeau was seen exiting a hotel in West Palm Beach before arriving at Mar-a-Lago, making him the latest high-profile guest of Mr. Trump, whose second term — which starts in January — is already overshadowing the last few months of President Joe Biden's administration.
