Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is under pressure to persuade President-elect Donald J. Trump to back down from a threat to impose a 25 percent tariff on all goods imported from Canada.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will meet with US President-elect Donald Trump at the Mar-a-Lago club in Florida after the latter threatened tariffs on Canadian products if Canada and Mexico did not curb the flow of drugs and illegal immigration across the US's borders.

Officials from countries threatened with hefty tariffs warn of harm to the economies, inflation spike and damage to job markets
