Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is slamming Alberta’s refusal to sign a joint statement on the plan to respond to Donald Trump’s tariff threats, saying Premier Danielle Smith is not putting Canadians first.

The largest exporting province rejecting a ‘Team Canada’ approach against Donald Trump doesn’t position the country well to negotiate with a second Trump administration.

Trudeau blasted Smith, reminding her that the federal government bought the Trans Mountain pipeline, which now has a C$34.5 billion price tag, giving Alberta its only route to export oil from Canada’s Pacific coast.
