Canada-U.S. Trade Minister Dominic LeBlanc met with U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick on Tuesday in Washington as Ottawa looks to find relief from President Donald Trump’s tariffs on key Canadian sectors.

LeBlanc’s office described the meeting, which also included Canada’s Ambassador to the U.S. Kirsten Hillman, as lengthy and constructive. Carney’s Chief of Staff Marc-André Blanchard is also in the U.S. capital this week.
