Alberta Premier Danielle Smith to meet with U.S. officials amid trade war
Alberta Premier Danielle Smith was originally heading to the U.S. on a pre-planned trip, but her office says she's now going to meet with officials amid the trade war.
Alberta Premier Danielle Smith plans to meet with U.S. officials during a trip south of the border next week, as part of her efforts to address trade tensions and the impact of tariffs on Canadian businesses. The meetings have been added to a trip planned months ago, with Premier Smith meeting with U.S. officials such as Mark Ezell, the commissioner of the Tennessee Department of Tourist Development, and Deana Ivey, the CEO of the Nashville Convention and Visitors Corp. Smith has criticized the U.S. for its trade practices and warned that Canada could face retaliatory tariffs on oil and gas products if the trade war escalates.
