Canada is implementing new border security measures after Donald Trump’s tariff threat.
Canada will “devote C$1.3bn ($900m; £700m) to the plan.”
Canada has promised to implement a set of sweeping new security measures along the country’s US border, including strengthened surveillance and a joint “strike force” to target transnational organised crime.
The pledge follows a threat from President-elect Donald Trump to impose, when he takes office in January, a 25% tariff on Canadian goods if the country does not secure its shared border to the flow of irregular migrants and illegal drugs.
Economists say such tariffs could strike a blow to Canada’s economy.
Announcing details of the plan, Canada’s minister of finance and intergovernmental affairs said the federal government would devote C$1.3bn ($900m; £700m) to the plan.
Canada also admitted that people can simply “hop over” the US border.
Canadian authorities admitted that migrants can simply “hop over” the U.S.-Canadian border after Donald Trump threatened hefty tariffs on the country unless it secures its boundary.
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau met with President-elect Trump at Mar-a-Lago after he threatened both Canada and Mexico with 25 percent tariffs on all imported goods unless they curb the amount of drugs and migrants from entering the U.S.
Now, members of the Canadian government’s police agency have conceded that while concrete blocks that dot some rural parts of the border prevent vehicles from crossing, it’s easy for migrants traveling by foot to step into the U.S.
