On Tuesday and Wednesday Canada’s Premiers will meet at the Westin Nova Scotian Hotel in Halifax.
“I look forward to welcoming my colleagues to Nova Scotia and to hosting this meeting on the Halifax waterfront, one of the most-visited destinations in the province,” said Premier Tim Houston, Chair of the Council of the Federation.
Houston said his colleagues will continue their discussion on revitalizing cooperative federalism in Canada, an issue Premiers highlighted in their post budget letter to the Prime Minister.
Premiers will be discussing housing and affordability, health care, infrastructure, energy, Canada-U.S. relations, emergency preparedness and response, and Arctic security.
A closing news conference is planned for the afternoon of July 17.
