President-elect Donald Trump opened diplomacy by promising to impose 25% tariffs on Mexico and Canada until they stem the flow of migrants and deadly drugs.
“Both Mexico and Canada have the absolute right and power to simply resolve this long-simmering issue,” he said. I wrote In real social. “We hereby demand that they use this power. Until they do, it is time for them to pay a very dear price.”
The statement comes after Joe Biden, the vice president, has tolerated an influx of fentanyl as long as Mexico secretly manages the influx of migrants to prevent a televised border crisis that would damage Biden's poll ratings. This is a big change from the president.

Biden also did little on the U.S.-Canada border. This little-do-nothing policy allowed many Indians to immigrate to the United States through Canada's pro-immigration government.
Biden's hands-off policy has allowed cartels to smuggle fentanyl and other drugs that kill more than 50,000 Americans each year. Laissez-faire policies also allowed investors and CEOs to hire millions of low-wage illegal immigrants in place of decent-paying Americans and their families.

but, new york times took disapproval President Trump's tone regarding life-saving policies:
The tariffs would have a dramatic impact on U.S. industries, including automakers, farmers, and food packagers that are busy transporting parts, materials, and finished goods across the U.S. border.
Costs can be particularly high in industries that rely on a consolidated North American market. Adding 25% to the price of imported products would make many products more expensive and could have a devastating impact on trade across the continent. As a result, consumers in the United States and other countries may experience higher prices and product shortages.
Bensman said Mexico's economy needs trade with the United States, so “we just have to comply.”
