The only Canadian politician who is actually negotiating with Trump and in regular contact is Premier Danielle Smith (UCP-AB) who has steadfastly told the Trudeau government that it has no authority to tell Alberta or any province whether it can sell oil and gas to the US or not since natural resources are a provincial jurisdiction under the Canadian Constitution. “Let's be super clear about why we find ourselves in the situation that we're in today,” Smith said Tuesday in an interview with the Calgary Herald. “It lands 100 percent at the feet of Justin Trudeau, who, even just a few weeks ago gave a speech where he thought it was an affront to women that Kamala Harris didn't win,” she said referencing Trudeau’s remarks lamenting Trump’s presidential win. https://thepostmillennial.com/alberta-premier-takes-charge-as-trudeau-botches-trade-talks-trump
