Alberta Premier Danielle Smith says while she doesn't want to assume anything after her meeting with U.S. president-elect Donald Trump at his Mar-a-Lago residence over the weekend, Canada needs "to be prepared" that threatened tariffs are on the way.
Smith met with the president-elect at Mar-a-Lago on Saturday evening, and again at his golf club on Sunday morning. She was a guest of Canadian celebrity investor Kevin O'Leary.
When asked by reporters whether she was able to obtain any assurances from the president-elect on the tariffs, Smith said Canadians should be prepared for them to come into effect on Jan. 20.
