SASKATOON—Alberta Premier Danielle Smith’s proposal to ship more Western Canadian products out of the Port of Churchill in northern Manitoba is being met with caution by the government of Manitoba, while the Saskatchewan government appears more open to the idea.
“I will tell you there are more pressing things for us to be dealing with right now,” Manitoba Premier Heather Stefanson said at a press conference on Oct. 31, although she did not rule out future discussions.
