In response to a threat from US President-elect Donald Trump, Canada has pledged to enhance security measures at its border with the United States.

Trump recently warned of potential tariffs on Canadian goods as a response to ongoing issues with drug trafficking and undocumented migration.

On Wednesday evening, Canadian Public Safety Minister Dominic LeBlanc addressed the media, stating that the Canadian government is prepared to invest additional resources into securing the border.

While LeBlanc confirmed the government's willingness to take action, he did not provide specific details about the new security measures or the timeline for their implementation.

This move comes amid growing concerns over the potential economic impact of tariffs, which could disrupt trade between the two nations.

More updates are expected as the situation develops.
