Nova Scotia Premier Tim Houston says he will introduce a bill next week to ease restrictions on the sale of out-of-province goods and services in Nova Scotia, citing the need to facilitate interprovincial trade in the face of U.S. tariffs.
Houston made the comments during a Feb. 20 press conference in Milton, Ont., at a campaign event held by Ontario Premier Doug Ford. Houston said the reduction of trade barriers would only apply to jurisdictions that adopt similar measures, and that Premier Ford, who will face an election at the end of the month, has signed on to the proposal.
