Canada’s government plans to increase investment in border security following threats from US President-elect Donald Trump to impose tariffs on illegal immigration and drug smuggling from Canada and Mexico. This comes after Trudeau met with provincial leaders to discuss a united response.
Canada ’s government is to bolster its investment in border security after Donald Trump threatened to impose steep tariffs over illegal immigration and drug smuggling across the US- Canada frontier.
Canada’s provincial leaders have criticised what they say is a failure by the government in Ottawa to prioritise border security. Ontario premier Doug Ford on Wednesday said he hoped the meeting with Trudeau would be “the start of a more proactive approach from the federal government” and would show it “takes the security of our border seriously . . . or risk the economic chaos of Trump tariffs”.
