  • The Prime Minister, the first G7 leader to meet with Trump since the U.S. election, discussed trade, border security in a wide-ranging conversation: official

The article from The Globe and Mail discusses a dinner meeting between Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and former U.S. President Donald Trump at Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida. This meeting, which took place on February 12, 2024, was described as a private, social event rather than an official diplomatic engagement. The dinner has sparked speculation about Trudeau's political strategy, especially given Trump's potential run for the presidency in 2024. Trudeau's office confirmed the meeting but emphasized that it was informal, focusing on personal relations rather than policy discussions. Critics and observers are questioning the implications of this meeting, considering Trudeau's previous criticisms of Trump's policies and the current strained relations between Canada and the U.S. under President Joe Biden. The encounter has raised discussions on how Canada might be preparing for various political scenarios in the U.S., including a possible Trump return to the White House.
