Conservative Leader Poilievre plans trip to U.S. that doesn’t include stop in D.C.

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is heading to the United States this week for a multi-city tour spanning Windsor, Ont., Detroit, Houston, Austin, and New York City, notably excluding Washington.
Poilievre said he avoids Washington meetings because Canada should have "one prime minister at a time," reflecting his belief that the Opposition leader should not conduct separate diplomacy with U.S. lawmakers.
Advocating for tariff-free trade for Canadian businesses and workers, Poilievre will meet with auto industry leaders in Michigan and energy executives in Texas during the tour.
This trip follows Poilievre's recent visits to the United Kingdom and Germany, while Prime Minister Mark Carney prepares to depart for Norway and the United Kingdom this week.
Concluding his travels in New York City, Poilievre will deliver a keynote address on "the historic partnership between Canada and the United States" at the Harvard Club, hosted by the Foreign Policy Association.
