This February, Canada, led by the once-untouchable progressive darling Justin Trudeau, pulled a move no one saw coming: it caved to President Donald Trump's pressure and classified five Mexican cartels as terrorist organizations.

That's right—the Sinaloa Cartel, Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG), Gulf Cartel, New Michoacán Family, and United Cartels now share a list with the likes of Hezbollah and Hamas. According to Canada's Public Safety Minister David McGuinty, this move aims to choke off the fentanyl flow and arm police with legal tools to crush these mafias.
