Trudeau’s statement is coming after he announced, Canada will implement $1.3 billion Border plan to ensure the security of the Northern border with the United States (US).
The Canadian PM said, “through Canada’s Border plan, we’re deploying thousands more frontline personnel to the border.”
US President, Donald Trump, said, “hundreds of thousands of people have died in the US from drugs pouring through the borders of Canada.”
According to PM Trudeau: “Through Canada’s Border Plan, we’re deploying thousands more frontline personnel to the border, launching a precursor chemical detection unit, and building a new drug profiling centre to combat the fentanyl trade.
This drug trade is a global, deadly issue — and Canada is tackling it head-on.”
