Houston and the other 12 premiers are heading to Washington on a trade mission this week. The Premier’s office says the delegation plans to meet with U.S. political and business leaders to remind them of the benefits of free trade to both countries. “I’m proud to stand in solidarity with my provincial and territorial colleagues and remind our American friends and allies that our economies thrive when we work together,” said Premier Houston. “We know the stakes are high – not just for Canadians and Nova Scotians but also for Americans who will also pay the price if tariffs are imposed.” His office says the premiers will also continue talking about removing interprovincial trade barriers. In 2023, Nova Scotia exported $4.4 billion worth of goods to the U.S. and imported more than $680 million. Top goods sent to the U.S. were tires, fish and prepared seafood, forest products, and plastics. The Premier is expected to hold meetings on Tuesday and Wednesday. 0 comment 0 FacebookTwitterPinterestEmail admin previous post Halifax Police continue investigation into 2005 murder of Danny DiBenedetto next post Trump says he is serious about Canada becoming 51st state in Super Bowl interview You may also like Man faces long list of charges after standoff... 13 مارس، 2025 استطلاع: 40% من الكنديين يخشون فقدان وظائفهم 13 مارس، 2025 كندا تخفف العقوبات المالية عن سوريا وتندّد بالمجازر... 13 مارس، 2025 ‘Get ready for a wild ride’: Weather Network... 13 مارس، 2025 Clear skies expected in much of Nova Scotia... 13 مارس، 2025 Nova Scotia NDP urging public to weigh in... 13 مارس، 2025 Unsafe tap water is common in Newfoundland.
