Trudeau speaks in Bahamas following summit with Caribbean leaders | LIVE

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will hold a press conference in Nassau, Bahamas following a summit with Caribbean leaders, where he announced that Canada will provide $12.3 million in new humanitarian assistance and $10 million for the International Office on Migration to support migrants in the region.

Trudeau announced a slate of new supports for Haiti on Thursday – but he stopped short of signalling support for the kind of international military intervention its de facto prime minister is asking for.

The prime minister also promised to spend another $44.8 million to respond to the Caribbean’s climate crisis, and $1.8 million to target the illicit drug trade and “strengthen border and maritime security” in the region.
