Six US states invite Canadian provincial leaders to discuss Trump tariffs
- Governor Janet Mills, alongside five other governors from the Northeastern U.S., extended an invitation to leaders from six Canadian provinces to convene in Boston for discussions on tariffs and strengthening trade ties.
- The summit aims to address President Donald Trump's tariffs and preserve strong economic and cultural ties between the regions strained by these policies.
- The premiers invited to the upcoming meeting hail from six Canadian provinces in the eastern and central regions, including Quebec, and the gathering is expected to take place soon, although no exact date has been set.
- Maine trades over $6 billion cross-border annually with Canada, its largest trading partner, and Mills warned tariffs could increase costs and reduce about 225,000 Canadian visitors this summer.
- The governors hope this meeting will safeguard their decades-long economic and cultural partnerships and mitigate negative impacts on businesses and tourism caused by the tariffs.
