Muskoka to welcome Canada's premiers in July
Premier Doug Ford is hosting Canada's premiers in Muskoka this summer.
In an invite to all 13 members of the Council of the Federation (COF), Ford is requesting their presence to shore up their commitment to work together to build a stronger, more united country.
'With President Trump taking direct aim at our economy, we need to build and we need to build fast,' said Premier Ford. 'Together, premiers are seizing the momentum coming out of the recent First Ministers' Meeting in Saskatoon to move the projects that will unleash the full potential of Canada's economy forward. There's never been a more important time for all of us from coast to coast to coast to work together to build the most competitive economy in the G7.'
The meeting July 21 to 23 will focus on encouraging premiers to move forward with nation-building projects, how to navigate Canada-U.S. relations, as well as working toward making Canadian communities safer.
Once in Muskoka, Canada's provincial leaders will sit with national Indigenous organizations to discuss economic development and reconciliation.
During his time as chairperson of the Council of the Federation, Ford has coordinated a Team Canada approach to fight tariffs, all the while helping Canada remain on equal footing with the U.S., which included a visit to Washington D.C. with the complete cadre of premiers.
