Saskatchewan Premier Brad Wall, Chair of the Council of the Federation, will lead a delegation of Canadian Premiers to Washington, D.C. today and tomorrow.

 

The Council of Federation Premiers mission, which will focus on trade, energy, and environment issues, will feature meetings with U.S. state Governors, and senior officials of President Obama's administration.

 

Wall says this is an unprecedented opportunity for Premiers to speak with a united voice to some of the most influential leaders in the United States.

 

The highlight of the COF mission will be a meeting between Premiers and U.S. state Governors at the winter meeting of the National Governor's Association.
