Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says the United States will delay the imposition of announced duties on Canadian imports for a month.

"The proposed duties will be delayed for a minimum of 30 days while we work together," he said.

Trudeau said the countries are stepping up measures to combat the fentanyl trade after a productive conversation with U.S. President Donald Trump.

Canada is strengthening border defenses, he said.

"Canada is rolling out a $1.3 billion border protection plan, bolstering it with new helicopters, technology, increased personnel, increased coordination with our U.S. partners and additional resources to combat fentanyl trafficking. Nearly 10,000 personnel will be on the ground to protect our border," he said.

Trudeau announced the creation of a new position to oversee efforts to combat drug trafficking.

"We are going to add Mexican cartels to the list of terrorist organizations, provide 24-hour border surveillance and, with the United States, create a joint working group to combat organized crime, fentanyl trafficking and money laundering. I have also signed a new directive for intelligence services focused on organized crime and fentanyl, for which $ 200 million will be allocated," - said Trudeau.
