Trudeau to Meet Premiers on U.S. Relations, Calls for Unity Amid Tariff Threats

OTTAWA – Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced plans to meet with provincial premiers this week to address Canada-U.S. relations, following President-elect Donald Trump’s vow to impose a 25% tariff on Canadian and Mexican imports.

Trudeau, emphasizing his government’s experience managing ties with the previous Trump administration, called for provincial unity in tackling the challenges ahead. “This is a relationship that requires consistent effort, and we must work together to address these concerns,” he said.

Trump has tied the proposed tariffs to concerns over drugs like fentanyl and migrant crossings at the U.S.-Canada border.

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith, known for her strained ties with Trudeau, acknowledged Trump’s concerns and urged the federal government to act swiftly. “The vast majority of Alberta’s energy exports to the U.S. are transported securely via pipelines, which have no connection to these illegal activities,” she stated, warning against unnecessary tariffs on Canadian exports.

The upcoming discussions underscore growing tensions as Canada navigates its crucial economic and political ties with the U.S.
