Canada’s premiers and Prime Minister Mark Carney will be gathering for an in-person meeting at the beginning of June in Saskatchewan. It will be the first time the province hosts such a meeting in four decades, Premier Scott Moe said.

“I said [to Carney], ‘It’s time that your government starts showing some love to Saskatchewan and Alberta,’” Ford said after a virtual First Ministers Meeting on May 7. “The last prime minister showed no love—as a matter of fact, to the contrary. So it’s nice that we’re heading out there to Saskatchewan for [a First Ministers Meeting].”
