FREELAND WRAPS WASHINGTON TRIP
Foreign Affairs Minister Chrystia Freeland continues her trip to Washington, D.C., today, where she’s been pushing for an end to the Trump administration’s tariffs on imported steel and aluminum. Freeland met yesterday with members of the influential US Senate foreign relations committee, where she received some support for the Canadian government’s position on the tariffs. She also criticized President Donald Trump, without naming him, during an acceptance speech for Foreign Policy magazine’s diplomat of the year award.
