- Alberta Premier Danielle Smith said she sees a breakthrough in talks with U.S. officials about energy during meetings in Washington in early June 2025.
- Smith's optimism follows the First Ministers' meeting in Saskatoon and ongoing discussions aimed at resolving trade tensions exacerbated by past U.S. tariffs and regulatory barriers.
- Smith highlighted Canada’s potential role in America's energy dominance through oil, gas, minerals, uranium, electricity, and timber, while British Columbia’s deputy premier urged focus on shovel-ready projects.
- Smith highlighted progress in talks concerning energy leadership, emphasizing that the U.S. relies on Canada for about 60% of its aluminum imports and currently lacks sufficient domestic capacity to replace this supply.
- The talks may lead to an interim agreement before the G7 summit, potentially easing 50% U.S. levies on Canadian steel and aluminum, which Canadian industry considers devastating.
