Manitoba’s trade council met Friday to discuss the province’s ongoing trade relationship with the United States.
Premier Wab Kinew announced the meeting in a news release, adding it featured discussion about the province’s ongoing wildfire situation and a report back from the first ministers meeting.
Business, Mining, Trade and Job Creation Minister Jamie Moses updated the council on the passage of Manitoba’s free trade legislation, new legislation to make it easier to trade with other provinces and territories, new funding to support research and attract American talent to Manitoba and the province’s work with Selkirk’s Gerdau steel mill to mitigate the impact of new steel tariffs.
The province continues to offer tax deferrals for businesses affected by tariffs and wildfires.
Formed in January, the trade council includes more than a dozen leaders from the private sector, business associations and labour groups.
