Energy and Natural Resources Minister Jonathan Wilkinson—the latest Liberal to visit Washington in response to president-elect Donald Trump’s tariff threats—is making a pitch for a Canada-U.S. energy and resource alliance.

Wilkinson told American lawmakers Wednesday that the best way for the U.S. to protect its economic dominance and national security from China is to work with Canada.
