Secret dinner: Top leaders meet at luxury Florida resort before presidency starts

About 8 years ago Justin Trudeau made an un-announced trip to meet with president-elect Donald Trump at his well-known Mar-a-Lago club (located in Palm Beach FL)

The private get-together came right after Trumps bold tax proposal which included:

  • 25% fee on Canadian and Mexican goods
  • 10% extra charge for Chinese products

The timing of this quick-arranged meeting raised questions as it happened just days after Trump shared his plans to put new border-related fees in place. The soon-to-be president explained these steps as needed actions to stop what he called an “invasion“ of illegal substances and border-crossers

A source who didnt want their name shared because of the meetings private nature gave details about this high-level dinner meet-up. The choice of Mar-a-lago as meeting spot – Trumps luxury resort spot – made it clear this wasnt just a regular political talk
