Pete Hoekstra and Danielle Smith: What Alberta and America want from each other

Canada–U.S. trade talks could drag on to 2027, according to U.S. Ambassador Pete Hoekstra and Alberta Premier Danielle Smith. Yet both insist the future is still bright—especially when it comes to energy alignment between Alberta and Washington. From pipelines and nuclear power to critical minerals and even American booze, they outline what's really slowing down CUSMA talks, and why Alberta sees an opening to shape North America's economic future.
