Alberta Premier Danielle Smith says she had an “exceptionally productive” meeting with Prime Minister Mark Carney, and that she is optimistic the federal government will consider Alberta’s priorities moving forward.

Smith made the comments on Sept. 11, a day after meeting with Carney in Edmonton, where the prime minister was gathering with his Liberal caucus this week ahead of the fall sitting of Parliament. She said that while some details still need to be finalized, an agreement that benefits both the province and the country may come soon.
