The Globe and Mail reports in its Tuesday edition that Alberta Premier Rachel Notley met Monday with governors and congressional leaders in Washington who could influence President Donald Trump's agenda on trade, energy and pipelines. The Globe's Justin Giovannetti writes that Ms. Notley sat down with the governor of Montana and the border state's two senators, as well as the governor of Wyoming. Her three-day visit is part of a broader push by Canada's leaders to have all levels of government engage with the new U.S. administration before it pushes ahead with Mr. Trump's plans to reopen the North American free-trade agreement and overhaul U.S. trade relationships. Ms. Notley's goal is to "make allies and push Alberta's issues to the top of the pile," according to her office. Ms. Notley is the first provincial premier to make the trek to Washington. While some past federal governments have tried to limit provincial involvement in foreign affairs, Canada's ambassador to the United States is applauding the broader approach to Mr. Trump's administration. "Engaging stakeholders ... is an important part of our advocacy work in the U.S.," says Canada's Ambassador to the United States David MacNaughton.
