Alberta Premier Danielle Smith visited incoming U.S. President Donald Trump at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida on Jan. 11, as well as at his golf club the following day. Her visit comes as threats of 25 percent tariffs on Canadian imports to the United States loom.

Smith, who appears with Trump and Canadian entrepreneur and “Shark Tank” investor Kevin O'Leary in photos she posted on social media from the visit on Jan. 12, said she talked about the importance of the Canadian energy sector to the United States.
