Quebec premier meets U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer in Washington D.C.
The talks came before July 1 free-trade negotiations, as Quebec sends 73.5% of its exports to the United States, officials said.
- Quebec leader Christine met Trade Representative Jamieson Greer in Washington today, marking her first official foreign trip since she was sworn in as premier earlier this month.
- Earlier in the day, Christine held a roundtable discussion with National Lumber, the Building Material Dealers Association, and General Motors ahead of upcoming continental free-trade negotiations scheduled to begin July 1.
- Quebec relies heavily on the United States, with 73.5 per cent of its 2024 exports—valued at $91.2 billion—destined for United States markets, though United States tariffs have impacted industrial sectors including aircraft and aluminum since March 2025.
- The office of Christine released no details from the discussion with Greer, a former United States air force lawyer who served as chief of staff to President Donald Trump's first-term trade representative, Robert Lighthizer.
- Greer's official stance prioritizes putting America First on trade, aiming to combat unfair practices and ensure reciprocity, positioning the U.S. negotiating posture ahead of continental talks beginning July 1.
