It has been a busy few days in Ottawa alongside my @PNWER colleagues, meeting with many elected officials and ministry staff, and the opportunity to meet with American ambassador Peter Hoekstra to discuss the importance of trade between our nations and the need to renew the USMCA trade agreement. These conversations matter because trade directly impacts jobs, businesses, and families across our nation and Saskatchewan. I will continue advocating for Saskatchewan’s interests and support economic stability.

This week started with administration officials refusing to acknowledge that Russia started the war in Ukraine. It ends with a tense, shocking conversation in the Oval Office and whispers from the White House that they may try to end all U.S. support for Ukraine. I know foreign policy is not for the faint of heart, but right now, I am sick to my stomach as the administration appears to be walking away from our allies and embracing Putin, a threat to democracy and U.S. values around the world.

Just got back from Idaho. Many in this Republican state are concerned about tariffs. Met with Governor, Lieutenant Governor, the local Chamber, staff from a US Senator's office and others. We discussed our great trade relationship, but if tariffs are imposed we will retaliate.

Will Alaska's LNG ideas come to anything? Maybe. For sure, I'll definitely be at @PNWER's Economic Leadership Forum in Anchorage on Wednesday to speak about Canada's west coast LNG & other energy molecules. x.com/SStapczynski/status/18…

Trump vows to build long-delayed LNG export project in Alaska 🇺🇸 🚢
However, the project has struggled to move forward due to a few reasons:
👉 No firm commitments from buyers
👉 An 800-mile pipeline required for the project hasn’t been able to reach final investment decision
