Prime-minister designate Mark Carney met with Ontario Premier Doug Ford this morning, ahead of the provincial leader’s trip to Washington, D.C., to discuss tariffs and free trade with a top U.S. official.

Ford says in a statement that he and Carney had a productive discussion, agreeing on the need to stand firm in the face of U.S. President Donald Trump imposing tariffs on Canadian goods.
