You know what's going on? Two important Canadian leaders are heading to sunny Florida to chat with Donald Trump’s team. It's all about border security and trade. The Canadian finance minister, Dominic LeBlanc, and foreign minister, Mélanie Joly, are the two key players. They're meeting with some big shots from Trump's incoming administration.

The main reason for this meet-up is to avoid some tough tariffs that Trump’s threatening to slap on Canadian products. LeBlanc and Joly are keen to build on the discussions that the Prime Minister had with Trump last month. They want to talk about Canada’s efforts to combat drug trafficking and illegal migration. They’ll also discuss a billion-dollar plan to boost border security.

Trump’s been saying some interesting stuff about Canada. He’s called the Prime Minister the “governor of the 51st state” and threatened to impose tariffs if Canada can’t stop the flow of migrants and drugs into the U. S. But here’s the thing: more drugs and migrants actually come from Mexico than Canada.

Canada has a lot of trade with the U. S. Nearly $3. 6 billion worth of goods and services move between the two countries each day. Plus, Canada is the top export destination for 36 U. S. states. So, these talks are super important. Let’s see what happens!
