Today, Premier John Hogan is in Boston to meet with his counterparts from eastern Canada and governors from the northeast U.S. to strengthen regional integration within the Atlantic provinces.
Prime Minister Mark Carney is set to introduce legislation that will help reduce interprovincial trade barriers and focus on 'nation-building' initiatives.
Hogan views Carney's plans as a timely response to challenges such as Trump's tariffs and threats to national sovereignty. The discussions in Boston aim to explore and address regional opportunities.
Hogan expresses the importance of collaborating with Atlantic colleagues to develop projects beneficial not only to Newfoundland and Labrador but also to PEI, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia. This meeting serves as a follow-up to previous conversations held in Saskatoon, providing a valuable platform for further dialogue.
